Boaters Safety: Last Call

If you're 23 years old or younger, safety class isn't just a good idea, it's required by law; here's your last chance to take a class before summer gets away from you.

The Muskego Police Department wanted to remind residents who were born on or after 1989 that they are required to complete a boating safety course to legally operate a motorized boat or personal watercraft (PWC) on Wisconsin waters.

As the weather stays firmly in the 'summerlike' category, the lakes will start to get busy, and the temptation will be to head out without the training. Luckily, you still have a chance this season to get compliant.

On June 26-29, the MPD and Muskego Parks and Recreation Department will host the last DNR Boater Safety Class of the season. Graduates of this class will be able to legally operate a watercraft on Wisconsin waters.

However, do note the class is filing up fast, so contact the Muskego Parks and Recreation Department at 262-679-4108 or on the web at www.ci.muskego.wi.us. Happy boating!
Until next time, have a good week, and stay
