The Colorado Division of Wildlife (DOW) will hold free seminars in Colorado Springs and Salida to assist hunters with their big game license applications. "Everyone from first timers to "˜old pros' can benefit from this seminar," said Janet Sherwood, a customer service specialist with the DOW.
The Colorado Springs seminar is March 22 at 6:30 p.m. at the DOW office at 4255 Sinton Road. The Salida seminars are March 27 and 29 at 5 p.m. and March 31 at 1 p.m. at the Salida office at 7405 Hwy 50.
"This is a great chance to become familiar with the Colorado hunting license application process," said Sherwood. "Whether you are mailing in a paper application, or doing your application on-line, there are a few tips and tricks that can help avoid errors."
The DOW will have computer terminals set-up for hunters interested in doing their application on-line.
The seminars are open to anyone interested in hunting deer, elk, pronghorn antelope, bear, moose, bighorn sheep or mountain goat, or anyone interested in learning more about Colorado hunting.
This year's deadline for submitting an application for limited hunting licenses is April 3, 2007.
All deer, pronghorn antelope, moose, bighorn sheep and mountain goat hunting licenses are issued through the application process. Some elk hunting licenses are by application, and some are available over-the-counter, depending on the season and location of the hunt.
For more information, call the Colorado Springs DOW office at (719) 227-5200 or the Salida office at (719) 530-5520.
