Geauga Park District’s Ranger Department is offering a Hunter Education Course spanning two upcoming Saturdays, October 20 and 27, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Big Creek Park’s Donald W. Meyer Center.
Admission will be limited to 10 students, with registration required on the Ohio Division of Natural Resources’ website at http://bit.ly/2DXmn6G.
Coursework will be for first-time hunters who want to acquire a hunting license, covering a range of topics from conservation, safety and ethics to the proper handling of firearms, bowhunting gear and more. All necessary equipment will be provided, but please bring a pencil or pen and a highlighter.
Students must attend both days and pass a 100-question multiple choice exam by a score of 75% or higher in order to obtain certification toward a hunting license after the course. All under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
Watch Hunting & Trapping under Activities on www.geaugaparkdistrict.org for future Park District-presented hunting courses and clinics as soon as they become available.
