Wisconsin Basic Hunter Education Course with Royce Curtis and Corky Roethel

Anyone born after Jan 1st 1973 must have a hunter education certificate to purchase any Wisconsin hunting license, so here’s your opportunity to get the certificate and a distinctive embroidered emblem. These classes will cover topics such as hunting equipment and methods, rules and regulations, ethics, responsibility, first aid and survival, principles of wildlife management, and basic firearms knowledge and safety. Some of the goals of this class are to promote responsible, ethical hunter conduct, to promote safe gun handling procedures and to familiarize students with hunting equipment, methods and skills to increase their enjoyment of the outdoors. Final testing will consist of a written section and a “hands-on” section. Students who become certified will be invited to the Coon Valley Conservation Club on Saturday September 24 for live firing practice and a fun competition.

Students are required to have a Wisconsin DNR customer number. Students with special needs must contact instructor at least two weeks in advance to request special accommodations.

Class offered in memory of Lowell Smith.
