Anyone Interested in Free ATV Safety Classes for Kids

Just putting this out there in case anyone has an interest. 

I have recently become a licensed ATV instructor through the state of CA so I can help out our local park district with providing free ATV safety classes to the youth.  Unfortunately there have been some preventable tragedies involving local children on ATVs and I don't want to see that happen again.  I would love to teach them proper safety procedures while they are first getting started.  The classes are usually held in Ft Bragg CA and are provided for free.  They usually take half a day depending on the students. 

Also every person who has purchased a new ATV should check their ATVs VIN number with http://www.atvsafety.org/
Adults and family members may also be entitled to free training. 

Not only are these classes highly recommend, but the attendance certificate is required to ride on some trails and in some parks.

I was given permission to expand these classes outside of our local area and couldn't think of a better group to share this with. 

That's a really cool offer Duane!

Congratulations and thanks for sharing .  I can remember when ATV's first came out and there were so many inexperienced riders getting hurt. Seen lots of footage of some serious endo's

The next kids class is tentatively set for Jan 21st but if a group of NCKA folks wants to get together before that I have access to extra loaner ATVs and all the safety gear needed for the class. 

This is awesome.  what's the minimum age?  I'm sure my kids would be into this.

Very cool Duane!
