Throughout the year, we accept requests for ranger programs. We ask that you only request a program for groups of 10 or more. Programs can be requested by filling out this form and emailing it to us at least two weeks in advance of your requested program time. While the programs are free, all vehicles entering the park are required to pay the park entrance fee or have a valid park pass. Only bona fide educational institutions are eligible for a fee waiver for park entrance fees. To learn more about educational visits to the park or to schedule a park ranger visit to your classroom, visit our education page.
