ATV Safety Training Class Sunday Sept. 20, 2020
Both classes are full with a long waiting list. The Class portion will take place at Rosie Park and the driving portion will take place in the empty lot just west of the Country Station (gas station) in Goodhue (Third Ave. and Broadway). We will need as many volunteers as possible to help with the driving portion of the class. Volunteers for the driving portion in 1st class will be needed around 12:45 (or a bit earlier to find out what to do). Volunteers for the 2ndsession of driving will be needed about 3:15. You do not have to be a certified instructor for this- we need people at all signs to make sure the kids are doing the signals.
