Delano Sportsman’s Club finished up their Spring Firearm Safety Training class on Saturday, April 12th. Sixty-eight (68) students successfully completed the course. The training involved firearm handling in the field, marksmanship shooting on the range, wilderness survival techniques, wildlife identification, conservation management, water safety, and first aid awareness. Students are now eligible for their Minnesota DNR Firearm Safety certificate. The plan is to hold a Spring class again next year. Late January, check the club’s web page for dates and times. If you are interested in becoming a certified MN DNR Firearm Safety Instructor and can help out with the class, contact Garret Sarkinen (garret.sark@hotmail.com).
