Hunter Safety Courses

Kittery Trading Post is pleased to again offer our Hunter Safety Courses free to the general public.

By Maine state law, individuals must complete a hunter education course prior to buying a basic hunting license, or be able to show a previously issued license of the same type.

All of KTP's Hunter Safety courses are team taught. Led by John Peterson and John Klosenski, the team includes seasoned KTP staff instructors Dana Poole and Bob Cody. John and John also teach Hunter Safety Instructor courses and hold the #1 and #2 Hunter Safety (Crossbow) Instructor Trainer certificates for the state of Maine.

See dates below for safety courses in Firearms, Archery or Crossbow.
