  ** This facility only seats 60 people.  Those individuals taking Hunter Education for certification will have a seat in the class.  Many times parents who are not taking the class would like to sit in with their kids - which we encourage - but this facility does not have extra seating to allow for that (over the max of 60).  We have run into situations where there are not enough seats for observers **   Feel free to to bring a sack lunch/drinks. We will not leave the area for a lunch break.
