HELP
For those with past volunteer

etc.
If you think
you might be interested in helping "new" hunters or boaters of all
ages get involved with our favorite sports, the Chillicothe Sportsmen’s Club
Safety Education Team would like to talk to you. Your participation on our
State Certified team of volunteers would help new students safely and ethically
become involved in hunting and boating, and also help insure that the privilege
to participate in these sports remains available to future generations.
