Hunter Education Instructors Needed
Green County Fish and Game has a very active hunter education program. Using a team concept each team is responsible for teaching one or two specific classes a year. Teams consist of three to five instructors who teach either a Traditional style course or the Home Study style course. Currently we schedule 7 classes a year, 4 traditional and 3 Home Study. We would like to continue at this level and even increase the number of classes if we can obtain sufficient instructors to teach the courses. Through attrition we have lost several instructors and are in the process of rebuilding two of our teams so that we can continue to provide the number of and the quality of courses that we have in the past.
Traditional courses usually run three evenings from 6 to 9:30 PM or a Friday Evening 6-9:30 PM and Saturday 10AM to 3:30 PM. In these classes the instructors cover in detail information listed in the 9 chapter Hunter Education Manual.
Home Study courses run Saturday from 9AM to 2PM. Home study courses require that students down load the Hunter Ed Manual from the internet, read the manual at home and answer the chapter questions in writing which are then turned in as "Homework" at the Saturday review session. Instructors in these classes conduct a 4 hour broad based review of information contained in the 9 chapter Manual.
Testing is conducted at the end of both styles of class to insure the students meet the necessary educational requirements of the course.
In both style classes instructors impart real world knowledge to students based on life experiences in the shooting sports.
The next Hunter Education Instructors course will be held on March 16th & 17th (2012) at the Isaac Walton League of America, 450 Beissinger Rd. Hamilton, Ohio 45013. To register call 1-800 WILDLIFE, you must be registered two weeks prior to take the course.
