HARRISBURG – State Senator Gene Yaw (R-Bradford, Lycoming, Sullivan, Susquehanna, Union counties) announced today that the Pennsylvania Game Commission (PGC) has scheduled additional basic Hunter-Trapper Education (HTE) courses for September and October, prior to the fall hunting seasons.
Yaw said the courses are all within his Senate District and increase the opportunities for new hunters or furtakers to complete the required basic classes.
According to the PGC, there is no fee for the basic HTE course; however, pre-registration is required and online registration is available for all hunter-trapper courses offered.
To register for a course, interested applicants can visit the PGC website (www.pgc.state.pa.us), click on the “Hunter Education Classes” icon in the center of the homepage and click on either “Hunter-Trapper Education” or “Hunter-Trapper Education Independent Study.”
