Hunter Education Class

Hunter education is a mandatory program that is designed to introduce students to several life-long skills that are important to many different types of outdoor recreational opportunities. The course teaches students basic survival and first aid skills, water safety, wildlife identification, the basics of wildlife management, hunting laws and firearm/archery safety. Hunter education also stresses the importance of individual responsibility and outdoor ethics.

Iowa law requires that anyone born after January 1, 1972 must be certified in hunter education before they are eligible to purchase an Iowa hunting license.
Students must pick up a manual and complete the questions in the back of the manual prior to the class.

Students must attend entire day to receive certificate. Bring a sack lunch and something to drink.

Class size is limited.

Pre-registration is required for this event.
