Spring turkey season is right around the corner. Have you tried to harvest a turkey, only to be disappointed with that elusive fowl? The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) is hosting a free turkey hunting class. You can attend in person or virtually.
What Is This?
The MDC is hosting a turkey hunting course. Because wild turkeys are cautious birds, getting close to them is challenging. The MDC experts will talk about the essential equipment, strategies, scouting, and turkey calls needed to be a successful turkey hunter.
Who Can Attend?
This class is open to participants ages nine and older. Children under age 16 must be accompanied by a participating adult. Registration is required.
Registration And Location
If you will attend the class in person, you can register here. This in-person class will be held at Burr Oak Woods Nature Center, which is located at 1401 NW Park Road in Blue Springs. If you do not want to travel, you can register for the online course here.
When Is The Class?
Both of the classes take place on Saturday, March 14, 2026, between 9 and noon. There is no charge to attend either class.
Spring turkey season is in April, so take this class and be ready to harvest the bird of your dreams!
