TRAINING COURSES
OutdoorSafe Inc will be presenting two programs at the US Forest Service Ninemile Wildlands training Center, Huson, Montana in 2007.

2008 Training Programs

American Wilderness Leadership School. June 10 – August 15 2008
Each year the Safari Club International Foundation hosts a series of six teacher training sessions at the American Wilderness School located about 45 miles south-east of Jackson, Wyoming. The six day long programs are designed to provide elementary, middle and high school teachers credible information on the environment, conservation, the responsibilities of the federal and state land management agencies in overseeing the use of public lands and the role that hunting plays in the management of game animals. During the six days the teachers are briefed by representatives of the Bureau of Land Management, Us Forest Service, US Fish and Wildlife, National Parks, and Wyoming Fish and Wildlife. Dr Gene Decker, Professor Emeritus, Colorado State University, heads the training program and shares with the students a life times worth of conservation experience ranging from the US to Africa, South America and New Zealand. Any of you who are teachers or know of teachers who might be interested in this program should contact Don Brown at 520-620-1220 and ask for the application material or go to www.safariclub.org.

OutdoorSafe Inc/US Forest Service Survival/Navigation Course.
29 August – 2 September 2008
Once again the US Forest Service and OutdoorSafe Inc will be offering a survival program at the Nine Mile Heritage Training Center, Huson, Montana. The 2008 course is actually two programs in one. Two and half days of survival training followed by two and a half days of map, compass and GPS training. You can sign up for one phase or the other or both. The 2006, 2007 and 2007 programs were very successful with most people attending both courses. For more information or to sign-up please call Linda Carlson at 406-626-5201. Since I limit this course to 15 people it tends to fill quickly - I recommend signing up early!

OutdoorSafe Inc/Practical Shooting Academy. 24 – 28 September 2008
New this coming year is a five day course that I will be presenting on behalf of the Practical Shooting Academy here in Colorado. This program will be a mirror image of the Montana course (See above). For those of you that might be interested my program will be preceded by a practical shooting course designed to improve a hunters shooting skills.
