Register for the Missouri State Highway Patrol Class at Peaceful Valley Lake Lodge, Saturday, April 30, 2022 9AM to 3 PM.
Update: We moved the Boating Safety Class due to weather. The new date is April 30th from 9 AM to 3 PM at the Lodge.
We’ve arranged with the Missouri State Highway Patrol to come onsite at Peaceful Valley on Saturday, April 30, 2022 from 9 AM to 3 PM for their boating safety course. I know what you’re saying—"I’ve been boating for years, so why do I need to take a boating safety course?” Well, for one thing, it’s a state law: if you were born after January 1st, 1984 and 14 or older, you need to carry a boating safety certificate and picture ID when operating a boat. Second, there may be an economic advantage--many boat insurance companies give discounts for clients who complete boating safety certificates. Third, it’s great to do a refresher if you took the course when you were 14 and you’re now over 60 like me.
The course is 9-3 on a Saturday. There is no charge for the course, but we are requesting a $10 per person/$40 per family deposit with your reservation. Because it's an all-day course, we will provide a morning and afternoon drinks and snacks, and a lunch of Subway sandwiches, chips, and soda, coffee, tea or water. You can use your deposit to pay for that, but if you don’t want the lunch or snacks, your deposit will be refunded to you when you sign in the day of the event. Reservations can be made by contacting the Peaceful Valley office at 573-617-9615 or via email at peacefulvalleylake@gmail.com.
