Title: Hunters Safety Class
Post by: rjn cajun on January 31, 2011, 10:34:30 PM: Wondering if anyone knows when or where there is a class around the Enumclaw area? Or if someone could send me a link that would be great.

Or you can take the online course at your own pace-

You have to go to a follow up class in person, at no additional cost-

Since you don't pay until you pass, it is a great learning tool that you can use whenever you have the time. I took it right after I moved back here, It took me five nights to complete. The questions have timers so you can not rush the material. It has links to useful information pages along the way & great interactive illustrations of different actions in motion, with cut away views of how they work, it was much better than I thought it was going to be.

I would say it was made for 10 year olds & up, maybe younger if they can stay focused & are strong readers but you can always read along and review, step by step, with them.

Log into it & cheek it out.

Only have 6 units to go. Got my son here with me now and showing him the website. Going to get him set up with his own user name and password tonight. Looks like the kind of informative place we've been looking for.
