The Field Test will be held at the Trap Field of the Winchester Gun Club Range.
WCGC is on West Camino Cielo, about 4 miles from state highway 154.

We plan to hold the Field Test between 7am and noon on Sunday.
Usually, we have split the class into 2 groups:
the first group starts at 9:00am and the second group starts at 10:30am.
However, we may need to hold some of the field tests in the afternoon due to scheduling conflicts.

Some Questions and Answers
about the Hunter Safety Education Classes:

?How much does the regular class cost???
$10. 

???Help!! I lost my certificate. Or my dog ate it or.....
I took the class many years ago from xxx at yyyyy.
Now I have the "the hunt of a lifetime" scheduled for Next Month.
Can you just issue me a new CERTIFICATE? Please?
NO. 

(That is a negative. We will not do that.)
Here are your options:
a) Contact DFG and see if they have records of your class.
They may have records and they may be able to re-issue a certificate.
b) Find some other instructor who is able to meet your rush schedule.
c) Retake the entire regular class.
d) If you are a member of WCGC, then you might want to take
the ONLINE class. HOWEVER, if you are in a "big hurry,"
then we probably won't be able to meet your scheduling needs.
**** Plan Ahead. **** 
Take care of your certificate.

We only replace certificates for folks who took the class from us.

?What if I'm not a member of WCGC?
Then this would be a great time to join and
support the shooting community in Santa Barbara County.
WCGC offers several types of memberships,
including $10 per year youth memberships for those under the age of 18.

?What happens if I don't reserve a seat?
The number of class seats is severely limited.

to fill the remaining non-reserved seats.
