Title: Trapper Training Class, Oct. 24
Post by: fatslinger on September 28, 2009, 04:24:10 PM: A Trapper Education Class will be held on October 24, 2009 from 9:00 AM to approx. 4:00 PM at the North Olympia Fire Station, located at 5046 Boston Harbor Road NE, Olympia, WA.

The class is free, but this time there is a $10.00 fee for the book. (This is a new trapper ed book with current info.)

Directions to the Fire Station are as follows:
From I-5 take Exit 105, which is an exit to downtown Olympia.
Follow the 'Port of Olympia' exit.
This will take you to Plum Street. Go North on Plum.
As you leave Olympia, the street changes names; from Plum St., to East Bay Drive, to Boston Harbor Road.
Approximately 5 miles out of town you will pass a Shell station/store.
Two blocks past the Shell station, on the right, is the Fire Station.

Post by: CastleRocker on October 24, 2009, 10:37:42 PM: My son and I just got back from the trappers education cert. class. Had to stop by Cabela's to look around and ran into a friend of mine who just came down from Alaska. Talked trapping with him (actuallly he talked, we listened), for quite awhile. He traps up there, and got 32 lynx, three wolverines, and 16 wolves last season. My son wants to move up there.

You guys missed a good class. Great to meet you Kain! We will have to trade some predator calling secrets later in the season.

Not very helpful. I have talked to him in the past and he was really nice. Maybe I just caught him on a bad day.
