While the first of the 2016-2017 big game seasons don’t get underway until August, the deadline for applying for limited licenses is April 5, 2016.

For new hunters, or even experienced hunters new to Colorado, the application process can be a bit confusing and overwhelming. To help guide hunters through the application process, District Wildlife Managers Gretchen Holschuh and Danny Lewis will present a Big Game License 101 class on March 30 at 6:00 p.m. at the Lake Pueblo State Park Visitor Center auditorium. The class will explain the application and draw process, cover frequently asked questions, preference points and where to go for further resources.

This class is free and registration is not required to attend. For more information, contact DWM Holschuh at (719) 250-9089.
