How to Book Your Field Day
To complete the hunter education requirements for Illinois, you must pass the online and Field Day portions of the hunter education course.
Once you have successfully passed your online Hunter Exam, you may register for a Field Day through the Illinois Department of Natural Resources.
You can book your field day through the IDNR at http://dnr.state.il.us/. Instructors are currently in the process of scheduling Field Day classes.
You must bring a copy of your Field Day Voucher and a piece of valid ID to your Field Day.
Children who do not have their own ID may have their parents or guardians show ID on their behalf.
It is the policy of IDNR that youth under the age of (10) must be accompanied to and during the safety education courses by an adult or guardian at least sixteen years of age.
Mere attendance of this safety education training and taking a written test will not guarantee the passing of this course. Multiple criteria such as mental and physical competency, the ability to demonstrate and recognize safe procedures, attitude and the maturity level of each individual student will be a factor assessed by the instructors in the final certification process.
