Lakewood:  The Hidden Bear Trail ATV Club and The Red Arrow Snowmobile/ATV Club are sponsoring a Wisconsin DNR certified ATV Safety Course.  The course will be held at the Lakewood Community Center/Fire Station, 17214 North Road, Lakewood, WI.  54138.   This building is located one block east of Highway 32 at the corner of Highway F and North Road.  Class will meet on Saturday April 28, 2018 and Sunday April 29, 2018 from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM both days.

Anyone is welcome to attend the course with a recommended minimum age of 11-1/2.   Anyone born after January 1, 1988 and at least 12 years old must have ATV certification to operate on public areas.  Those students who have not reached the age of 12 may not use their certificate to operate alone until they turn 12 years of age.  Parents and adults are encouraged to enroll and participate.  Fees for the course are $10.00 per student.  Fee is waived if you, parents or grandparents are members of either club.

Students successfully completing the course will receive ATV safety graduate certificates.  It is important to note that students must attend “both” sessions.  There is no actual ATV operation in the class.

Students must register online and also obtain a DNR customer number at https://gowild.wi.gov or a customer number can also be obtained at DNR service outlets or 1-888-936-7463.  

Class size will be limited to 40 participants.  It is recommended to register early to reserve a place in the class.  Students with special needs will need to contact the instructor at least two weeks in advance to request special accommodations.  For information, please contact Brian Fitzpatrick at (715) 340-6262 or fitzpatrick953@gmail.com
