The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) is offering a free hunter safety Internet-completion course in Martin County.

The course will be held at the Stuart Shooting Center, 3091 SE Jay St., Stuart, on Feb. 18-19, from 5:30 – 8 p.m. Students must attend both days.

Students must complete the Internet course before coming to class and bring a copy of the final report from the online portion of the course. The final report form does not have to be notarized.
