🐾 Pepper, Piper, and Tina! 🐾

Let’s give a warm welcome to our newest B.A.R.K. Rangers, Pepper and Piper, along with their mom, Tina! These two precious girls spent a lovely morning exploring the park while learning all about the B.A.R.K. Ranger principles. 💚

During their visit, they discovered the history of the ancient Mississippians who inhabited our park more than 900 years ago, learned how to help protect our public lands, and practiced what it means to be a great B.A.R.K. Ranger! 🏛️🐶

B.A.R.K. Rangers uphold these simple rules:

🐶 Bag your pet’s waste
🐶 Always use a leash
🐶 Respect wildlife
🐶 Know where you can go

If you’d like your fur baby to become a B.A.R.K. Ranger, come visit us at Wickliffe Mounds State Historic Site Wednesday through Sunday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM! We’d love to meet you and your four-legged friends! 🐾
