A boater’s safety course sponsored by the Silver Lake Water Patrol and the state Department of Natural Resources will be held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on July 30 and 31.
The class will teach you the basics of boating and boating laws and regulations so that you can have a safe and fun boating season.
Wisconsin boating safety certification or out of state equivalent certification is required for operators born on or after January 1, 1989 and at least 16 years of age. Operators 12 to 15 years of age must either have a certificate or have an adult on board while operating. Anyone 10 years of age or older is eligible to take the class and receive a safety education completion certificate. The certificate does not become valid until the child reaches 12 years of age.
The class will meet at Silver Lake Village Hall, 113 S. First St., Silver Lake.
Fee for the class is $10 per student. You can sign-up at Silver Lake Village Hall or call 889-4100.
