Youth Boat and Water Safety Class
June 13, 2019 @ 8:30 am - 1:00 pm
The Gull Chain of Lakes Association (GCOLA) in conjunction with Cass and Crow Wing County Water Patrols and DNR Enforcement is again sponsoring two boat and water safety classes for all youths ages 12 to 17. According to Minnesota state law, all teens 13-17 years old are required to have a permit to operate a personal watercraft and all youth ages 12-17 must have a permit to operate a boat with a motor of over 25 HP. This class not only goes through all rules and regulations, but also provides all participants hands on boat operation training. This class qualifies participants for the required permits. GCOLA will be giving participants a life jacket. The sheriff’s office strongly recommends that all young people in this age bracket take the class. There is no cost for the classes.
There will be two opportunities to take this class; Thursday, June 13 and Thursday July 11 at the Gull Lake Yacht Club, 19696 Love Lake Road. Check in is from 8:00 – 8:30 a.m. with the class starting at 8:30 a.m. Lunch for participants will be provided at no cost by Zorbaz on Gull.
All who are interested should call Mary Kay Larson at 218-831-5656 to register. Call now since each class is limited to 25 participants.
