Hunting season is just around the corner. It’s not to early to think about looking into hunter safety classes. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources provides the regular classes that even the most seasoned hunter can learn from. “Though classes are held throughout the year, we offer more of them in late summer and early fall,” said Capt. Mike Hammer, DNR Enforcement Education Program coordinator. “So now is the time to sign up and complete a course, because once the hunting season gets rolling, it might be too late.”
