The University of Maine 4-H Shooting Sports Program will host a one-day workshop to certify volunteer leaders in archery and rifle.
Minimum enrollments are required in order to offer each discipline. Participants will be certified to teach one specific discipline to youth participating in a formal 4-H Shooting Sports Program.
Participants must arrange for and complete VOLT training with their county extension office before they can become Maine 4-H Shooting Sports volunteers.
Each state maintains it’s own standards for certification that may exceed those established by the National Committee, and may differ from Maine standards.
TRAINING: All sessions will be hands on, and will include all materials.
REGISTRATION: The registration form and full payment of $25.00 are due at registration. Please note that fees are not refundable if cancellation is made after December 29th.
