2019 Fall Safety Training is fast approaching! - Click HERE for more information.

The most positive aspect of being a part of the Andover Sno Dragons Snowmobile Club is being able to provide instruction on the safe use of snowmobiles to the young riders of the area. The club hosts the Minnesota DNR Youth Snowmobile Safety Course, having several State Certified Instructors among our group. We have the participants review all the materials provided for us by the MN DNR, as well as have them listen to speakers on the subject of snowmobile safety.

The Law (since October 1, 2002): Anyone born after December 31, 1976 must have a snowmobile safety certificate to operate a snowmobile anywhere in Minnesota. The Youth and Young Adult Safety Course is available to youth ages 11 years and older (although students are eligible to participate in the course and take the tests at age 11, the DNR will not issue their official valid safety certificate until their 12th birthday). Persons 16 years of age and older are eligible to take the Online Only Course instead if they choose.

There are two options for Youth Snowmobile Safety Certification.  A 'Traditional Course' or an 'Online Course'.  Both courses cover snowmobile safety, operation, and laws.  You must complete one OR the other.

The Adult Course takes a close look at the causes of accidents, speed and reaction times, stopping distances, group riding, and the effects of long term injuries and death on family and friends.
