Des Plaines archery deer hunt change

Archery deer hunters at Des Plaines State Fish and Wildlife Area will no longer need to obtain a site permit to hunt deer beginning with the 2010-2011 archery deer season. 

Starting this fall, hunters at Des Plaines SFWA will be required to sign in and out and record harvest at the nearest hunter check station at the site.  Two site check stations will be available for archery deer site harvest reporting:  one at the main site office and the other at the west parking lot of the Area B.  Hunters in Area A (West Grounds) will use the check station at the Des Plaines main site office.  Hunters in Areas B and C (East Grounds) will use the check station at the west parking lot of Area B.
