2010 4-H Shooting Sports Certification Training Schedule

To serve as a Shooting Sports leader , 4-H leaders must complete the Youth Protection process, must be at least 18 years old, and must have participated in at least one state-level 4-H Leader Training SHOOTING SPORTS CERTIFICATION WORKSHOP in the discipline in which they are providing supervision. If an adult leader is not certified, he/she cannot provide hands-on or safety instruction without a certified leader being present. A leader may obtain certification in an additional discipline (archery, pistol, coordinator, muzzleloader, rifle [.177 pellet, .177 BB, and .22], and shotgun) by completing a certification workshop provided by 4-H certified state training team members. Certification Workshops are not designed to teach volunteers how to use archery equipment or shoot a firearm, but are designed to teach adults how to conduct safe, supervised, shooting experiences for 4-H members enrolled in the project. Therefore only adults who have experience in safely handling archery equipment and/or firearms should enroll in these certification workshops. Special thanks are extended to the WISCONSIN CHAPTER NATIONAL WILD TURKEY FEDERATION, STATE CHAPTER SAFARI CLUB INTERNATIONAL, NORTHEAST CHAPTER SAFARI CLUB INTERNATIONAL, MIDWAYUSA, ROCKY MOUNTAIN ELK FOUNDATION, FEDERAL CARTRIDGE, FRIENDS OF THE NRA, AND THE WISCONSIN 4-H FOUNDATION for making these certification training sessions possible.

The remaining certification for 2010 will be in Eau Claire County this fall. For 2011 there will be three certifications offered, one northern, one central and one southern location in the state and will again be spring and fall dates. For 2012 there will be three certifications offered one Eastern, one Central and one Western. These will be spring and falls dates to be determined.
