Park Ranger Notes

This site serves the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Park Ranger Community of Practice (CoP). Park Rangers are the Corps' face to the nation and may be the only contact the public has with the agency.

This site contains beneficial information for every park ranger, from the new hire to the seasoned veteran, which will help enhance professionalism.

Help us keep our ranger photos current! See the Gateway Glimpse on submitting photos.
