Updated: Hunter ed class canceled (corrected)

Due to Covid-19, there will be no hunter education class held in Cathlamet this year.

There are a couple of options available. One is the deferred option. This is a one-year, once-in-a-lifetime option. The other is the on-line class with a newly created Virtual Field Day (VFD) course.

Deferral hunter applications:

· Must not have failed a hunter education class in the last 12 months.

· Go to WDFW, Hunting, Hunter Ed., Hunter Ed. deferral program and follow instructions.

On-line class:

· WDFW, Hunting, Hunter Ed. training, register for the online class.

Updated copy follows:

-- Deferred hunters must by 10 years old (not 9).

--Students must be at least nine years old to take the online class and virtual field day.

--Students younger than nine can take the online class but must take an in-person field skills evaluation once those are offered again.
