Small game hunting is the focus of Take a Kid Hunting Weekend this Saturday, Sept. 26, and Sunday, Sept. 27, according to the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.
During the weekend, adult Minnesota residents accompanied by a youth under age 16 can hunt small game without a license, but must comply with open seasons, limits and other regulations.
“This is an opportunity to pass on your passion for the outdoors and make some memories,” said Mike Kurre, DNR mentoring program coordinator. “Hunting small game teaches valuable skills that can be a stepping stone toward big-game hunting.”
