The Department of Natural Resources has announced a new hunter educator training workshop geared at women who want to become volunteer hunter education instructors. The workshop will take place on Saturday, June 24, at the Carl T. Johnson Hunting and Fishing Center in Cadillac.
The all-day workshop will begin at 9 a.m. and is limited to 40 participants. Workshop attendees will learn the basics of being a volunteer hunter education instructor, sharing information in a teaching situation, how different people learn differently, and local contacts in their area to get involved with teaching teams. The workshop is free and lunch will be provided.
Persons interested in becoming a volunteer hunter education instructor, but unable to attend this workshop are encouraged to check out the "Become a Hunter Education Instructor" information on the DNR Web site at www.michigan.gov/dnr, by clicking on the Hunting menu on the left side of the DNR front page.
