Regardless of whether you're hunting, hiking, fishing, scouting or running dogs, there is no better feeling in the world than knowing where you are and where you're heading. We've put together this curriculum understanding that people work full time jobs, have families, dogs, and plenty of other commitments throughout the year as well. We have allotted classroom time in the evenings at our office in Peterborough, and then a practical day to end the course as a whole, wrapping it all up with a BBQ. Come enjoy the day outside navigating routes, problem solving navigational dilemmas in a controlled environment with your fellow students, and leave understanding how to use your mind, your compass, and your GPS while in the woods. |

Classes will begin Friday night May 21, 2010 from 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm. A two hour classroom will be held each evening (May 21, May 28, and June 4) and the practical day on June 12 from 0900 until 1700 ending with a light summer dinner for all class participants. Contact us for details. |
