This program is being offered on Saturday, February 18, from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at the North Country Resource Center, 629 Main Street, Lancaster, NH. This program is jointly sponsored by the NH Fish and Game Department and UNH Cooperative Extension 4-H.

Pre-registration is required. To sign up today and reserve your spot, please visit www.fishnh.com/fishing/lets-go-fishing.html and select "View the Current Class Schedule," then "View Upcoming Events." (You can find other ice-fishing classes offered around the state, as well!)
