The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) is offering free hunter safety internet-completion courses in Escambia and Santa Rosa counties in August. Hunter safety courses are designed to help students become safe, responsible and knowledgeable hunters and learn about conservation.

Students who have taken the online course and wish to complete the classroom portion must bring the online-completion report with them.

    Why do folks wear camo under high-vis safety gear? I know it’s a requirement for the safety gear but camo???? Might as well wear a white wife beater. JS
