Montana Hunter and Bowhunter Education Instructors Needed in Region 6

Volunteer instructors are being sought for the Hunter and Bowhunter Education programs in Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks Region 6, which includes the counties of Hill, Blaine, Phillips, Valley, Daniels, McCone, Sheridan, and Roosevelt counties. In particular, more instructors are needed in the Culbertson, Bainville, Froid, Medicine Lake, and Plentywood areas.

Hunter and Bowhunter education are state mandated courses, which are taught by dedicated volunteers. Region 6 is in need of recruiting more of these dedicated men and women to con-tinue to serve the Region 6 area. Anyone who is at least twelve-years old is eligible to apply.

The heart of Montana’s Hunter and Bowhunter Education programs is the group of dedicated volunteer instructors. They stand as examples of how each hunter should demonstrate safety, ethics, behavior, and responsibility to not only themselves, but also to landowners, other hunt-ers, and the resource.

These instructors choose to honor Montana’s hunting heritage and “Pass it On!” by sharing their skills, experiences and their love of hunting and Montana’s vast resources with those new to hunting and outdoor adventure.

If you are interested in the future of hunting, in improving sportsmanship and safety in the field, or teaching an appreciation for the vast hunting resources in Montana, then we need you to join us and “Pass it On!”
