IDFG is looking for people who would like to become Hunter Education and/or Bowhunter Education Instructors.  If you like to work with kids and want to help keep our hunting heritage alive, then becoming a volunteer Hunter or Bowhunter Education Instructor is what you’ve been looking for.  Contact B.J. Lillibridge, Hunter Education Coordinator, at (208)799-5010 for details about a one day certification seminar or stop in at the IDFG office at 3316 16th St.

A Hunter Safety Graduate Sight-In Day will be held at the range on Saturday, September 16.  B.J. Lillibridge, IDFG Hunter Safety Coordinator, is also handling this event.

From President Rick Brigham:  Range maintenance continues.  The bridge on the 6-bench side has been re-surfaced with 3/4 inch plywood, and painted, for shooter safety.  Thanks for continuing maintenance help goes to Frank Perkins, Dean Narramore, Jess Stone, and Kevin Spradlin.  Phase I of range expansion will include dirt work at the 200/300 yard/meter distances.

The September membership meeting will be held Wednesday, September 6, beginning at 7:30 p.m., in room B32 in the basement of Lewis Hall, LCSC campus.
