HELP
For those with past volunteer experience working with "Kids" in Scouts, schools, coaching a sport, etc.
If you think
you might be interested in helping "new" hunters or boaters of all
ages get involved with our favorite sports, the Chillicothe Sportsmen’s Club Safety Education Team would like to talk to you. Your
participation on our State Certified team of volunteers would help new students
safely and ethically become involved in hunting and boating, and also help insure that
the privilege to participate in these sports remains available to future
generations.
For further
information about the requirements for becoming an instructor, please contact
Lowell Bennett, 309-274-5586 or lbennett@mtco.com.
