Chainsaw Safety Training Course – FULL

Join us for a 2-day chainsaw safety training course led by chainsaw professional and trail builder Adam Moreland of Arbutus Woodlot Services.  Over both days, students will be guided through the basics of safe chainsaw operation, maintenance, bucking, PPE requirements, and more!

We are incredibly pleased to be able to offer these courses free of charge to trail volunteers to make them as accessible as possible. Each participant will also be provided their own set of chaps and helmet to use for the duration of the course AND to bring home with them at the end of the weekend! Coffee, snacks, and lunches are included, and all equipment (including chainsaws, maintenance tools, gas, additional PPE, etc) will also be provided for use during the course – though participants are welcome to bring their own!

What To Expect:

– All equipment (including chainsaws, maintenance tools, gas, PPE, etc.) included, though students are encouraged to bring their own if they have it!

– NEW set of chaps and helmet will be provided to each student for use during the course AND to bring home upon completion of the course.

– Coffee & tea, snacks, and lunches provided.

– The course will be divided roughly 50/50 between indoor classroom instruction and outdoor hands-on learning.  Please dress for the weather and come prepared to get a little (or a lot) dirty.

– Courses are limited to a maximum of 8 participants.

– Additional dates to be announced
