About this Event:
This will be a 6-hour field day open to registrants who have competed the on-line trapping course. Students must bring their "Certificate of Completion" for the on-line course (with a passing grade) to the field day and will pay a $10 fee when they arrive. Lunch will be provided for students, attending parents or guardians, and instructors. Students under the age of 18 will be given a pail of "goodies" worth several times the $10 fee for the field day. Although it is not required, we would appreciate students or their parents sharing an email address with lead instructor, Bob Steinmetz by emailing him at bobsteinmetz@charter.net. Answering questions, providing assistance, or solving any problems with Event Manager or the online course can often be quickly taken care of by email. We are here to make sure you have the best experience possible.
