Friendly Reminder - Deer Trapping Site Traffic

Submitted by Jim Romine, Executive Director, [email protected]

With deer trapping to begin this month, I respectfully request that all residents be mindful of this annual process and stay away from the trap sites. Not only does this help our procedures to trap the deer quickly, but also respects those who live around these trap sites by minimizing the traffic by their homes. Our goal is to complete this process in 6-7 nights, with trapping usually occurring once per week. Please remember, this trapping process is State regulated and tampering with the nets, deer, workers, etc. is against the law. Please help us to wrap this up quickly and efficiently. Many thanks, Jim
