The 6th grade Safety class at Cook County Middle School wrapped up their Snowmobile Safety certification work with their Field Day Testing on Wednesday, March 6th.
For this practical exam, students review the key parts of a snowmobile, perform basic maintenance checks, and practice hand signals before driving a course to showcase their ability to safely handle the machines.
We want to thank Steve’s Sports for allowing us use of their snowmobiles for this event. Special thanks to volunteer instructors Kim Linnell and Eric Nelms, and DNR Conservation Officers Darin Fagerman, Mary Manning, and Tom Wahlstrom for leading the Field Day and providing great instruction to our students.
