All 26 students attending the April 28th Field Day at the CVCC successfully completed the training and testing to earn their WI DNR Hunter Safety Eductaion certification. Students age 10 and up from as far away as Milwaukee and Waukesha spent the morning in the rain demonstrating firearm handling skills, tree stand safety, hunting technics inclucing blood trailing and shooting .22 rifles and 20 ga shotguns. Warden Shawna Stringham talked to the students at noon and answered questions. Students then completed the written and hands on practical tests. The class average on the tests was 97% and was the highest ever for as far back as any of the instructors could recall!
Volunteer instructors for the class were Corky Roethel, Steve Pauloski, Royce Curtis, Don Primmer, Lillian Primmer, Dick Wallin, Stuart Peterson, John Alseth, Jay Sandman and Hunter Pauloski.
