Join us for a free program on bear awareness education & bear spray training. You’ll learn how to avoid a bear encounter, how to hunt safely in bear country, and the newest techniques on defense against bear attacks. Hands-on instruction on how to use bear spray will be offered the last half hour of program.

Program is geared for 10+ years-old, is free, and no registration is required.
