Parents........promote snowmobile safety by enrolling your kids in our snowmobile safety classes! It's a great way to teach new riders about snowmobile safety and how to respect our sport. Our classes are open to riders of all ages and skill levels! This is a required class for anyone born in 1985 or later. Sign up before the snow comes, these are our only classes. Very few organizations have classes after the first of the year so don't be left out. Check out the Safety class page for more information.
Dates : Saturday October 16,2010 Saturday November 13,2010 Saturday December 11, 2010
Classes will be held at Boone County Fairgrounds, in Belvidere. 8:00 A.M. - 4:00 P.M. Call 815-547-7074
