The season is actually right around the corner – whether your holiday festivities have begun or not – and we encourage all riders to be educated\, prepared\, and safe. \n\n\n\nPersons 12 years or older and born after January 1\, 1985 must have a snowmobile safety certification to operate a snowmobile on public trails or waterways. The reading material and testing is geared towards 11 and 12 year old students. If you have any questions\, feel free to contact Deputy Fischer at the Outagamie County Sheriff’s Office 920-832-5605 or at the email provided on the Go Wild registration site. \n\n\n\nStudents must register online using the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources Go Wild page. Select the link to browse for safety courses and search for Snowmobile in Outagamie County. You will find our class at the Shadows on the Wolf Educational Center. A parent or guardian MUST attend the first class; but adults are encouraged to attend all the classes with their students. Students should bring something to write with and booklets will be provided.

I’ve been ordering glasses from Zenni for over 15 years. To order from Zenni\, you will need the PD number (pupillary distance). For adults\, the number shouldn’t change. It will change for kids.
