Parents/Teachers: Badlands National Park is developing a new Junior Ranger Activity Book. We are asking young artists to draw images to illustrate a story about rattlesnakes. We will choose drawings that best illustrate the story to be featured in the new book. In order for a child’s drawing to be published in the book, we must have a parent sign this consent form. The child’s first name, age, and town will appear with his/her drawing.

Kids: Read the rattlesnake story and draw a picture that goes along with the story. Your drawing could be chosen to appear in the new Junior Ranger Book! Ask your parents for permission to enter the contest. If your drawing is selected, we will send a copy of the new book to your home!
