We have several new hunters this year. If you have not attended Hunter Education, you will need to do so prior to this hunting season in order to attend CTO hunts.
We have worked with our local Wildlife Resources Officer and scheduled a class at the West Carteret Fried Station on September the 16th from 9:00am to 6:00pm. Charles Mizelle and Officer Ingle will teach the class. It would be great to gather up several from our chapter and attend this course together!
In order to attend you will need to register on NC Wildlife and Fisheries website. Here is the link.

The Hunter Education Program of the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission provides free hunter education courses throughout the year in every county. More than a firearm safety course, instruction includes ethics and responsibility, conservation and wildlife management, wildlife identification, survival and first aid, specialty hunting and tree stand safety.
There are no minimum age requirements, however, classes are taught at a sixth grade level and tests must be completed without assistance. Courses are a minimum of 6 hours, taught by wildlife officers, hunter education specialists and certified volunteer instructors, and certification is accepted in every state and province in North America.
Due to hunter education, hunting accidents have decreased by over 50% during the last twenty years making hunting one of the safest recreational activities.
This course meets the hunter education requirement for all first-time hunting license buyers in North Carolina. Certification is accepted in every state and province in North America.
