what exactly is discussed in these? don't take this wrong, and i'm not down playing safety, but what are they going to tell me that i don't already know? i'm asking that as a legit question and not an "edit for bad language"hole remark. but to me safety on a sled is common sense.

This is mostly for the younger croud. I post it mainly for kids parents to see. We go over Operation saftey, basic parts, alcohol / drug use, land use, ice saftey, weather saftey, and a whole load of other stuff. It's great if you are young or maybe just getting into the sport. I help teach the course we do in Pelham.
I forgot to mention the course is free of charge!!!!!

I should reword what I said. I made this post so parents know this course is available for their children to take. Sorry for not being clear with my previous post.

No, call Fish & Game. They'll know haha. As far as I know this wouldn't count. But asking doesn't hurt.

THE COURSES ARE GREAT EVEN FOR SOMEONE WHO HAS NEVER BEEN ON A SLED.....YOU REALLY LEARN ALOT...PLUS THINGS LIKE FROSTBITE PREVENTION ETC ETC.....SO FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE NEVER EVEN SAT ON A SLED, HAVE NEVER REALLY SPENT ANYTIME OUTDOORS ETC..IT IS REALLY REALLY GOOD...AND AS FAR AS IT BEING THE SAME COURSE YOU WILL HAVE TO TAKE IF YOU GET NAILED FOR SPEEDING...IT IS..AND THE GOOD THING IS ONCE YOU TAKE THE COURSE..YOU GET A CARD AND A CERTIFICATE OF COMPLETION...SO YOU NEVER HAVE TO TAKE IT AGAIN......AND IF YOU ALREADY HAVE THE CLASS UNDER YOUR BELT YOU WILL NOT HAVE TO TAKE IT IF YOU GET NAILED FOR SPEEDING.....SO IT BOILS DOWN TO 1.) AWESOME CLASS FOR TOTAL BEGINNERS.....LEARN ALOT OF USEFUL INFO..NOT JUST BASIC SLED STUFF..AND 2.) COVERS YOU FOREVER IF YOU GET A TICKET THATS O.H.R.V RELATED.......

OR A COFFEE.......BUT IF YOU ARE GOING WITH A CHILD OR A NEW RIDER..KINDA MAKE A DAY OF IT...IT'S REALLY NOT THAT BORING......AT LEAST THE ONE I WENT TO FIVE YEARS AGO WAS'NT........PLUS AS I SAID...IF YOU DO GET NABBED FOR A SPEED VIOLATION YOU ARE GOING ANYWAY...WHY NOT DO IT AT A TIME OF YOUR CHOOSING AND BE COVERED FOR THE "WHAT IF"......JUST MY THOUGHTS......
