LIBERTY, NY — Cornell Cooperative Extension Sullivan County (CCESC)’s 4-H Youth Development Program will host a free snowmobile safety course for youth on Sunday, November 8, from 8:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. The training will be held at the CCESC Gerald J. Skoda Extension Education Center on 64 Ferndale-Loomis Rd. Classroom presentation and activities will be provided by certified instructors with additional information shared by video.

New York State law requires that children ages 10 through 17 earn a Snowmobile Safe Operator’s Certificate to operate a snowmobile independently. This certificate must be with the child at all times when operating a snowmobile without the supervision of an adult.

Youth must be age 10 as of the date of class in order to enroll. A parent or guardian must sign a parental consent form for youth to participate. Each participant is expected to bring a bag lunch and a pencil.

The class is free with required pre-registration. Registration and more information can be obtained by calling CCESC at 845/292-6180 or emailing sullivan@cor nell.edu. CCESC events can be found by visiting www.sullivancce.org. Additional donations for CCESC programs are appreciated.
