Join us on December 12th and 13th for the Crowley's Ridge Nature Center for our annual "Trapline Tag Along" two part class. On Friday, December 12th at 2pm, we will meet at the Commissary Church of Christ located at 1909 Greene 609 Road in Paragould. We will follow along with professional trappers and watch them make sets with snares, conibears, and other traps. Registration is required and this class is recommended for ages 12 years and above. We also recommend for all participants to wear knee boots or hip waders. 

The following morning, we will meet at 7am at the Commissary Church of Christ to run the traplines, dispatch any catches, and remove our sets from the private property. 

If you can only attend one day, please email Lucas at Lucas.Martin@agfc.ar.gov. 

Be on the lookout for our fur handling class in February where we will learn how to process these pelts.
