Two additional tracks of land have been added to the Parks hunting areas in 2008. The following area will be open for selection by registered Bow, Shotgun and or Muzzleloader hunters this year.

River Bend Zone B

An additional 32.5 acs. of property have been added to the "B Zone" section of River Bend Park. This property lies adjoining the Eastern Boundary of the River Bend B Zone. As with all DMZ 61 properties State regulations establish a 450' safety area around all occupied buildings. This law applies regardless of property ownership or highway right of way.

Pine Forest

We have combined the traditionally Bow only Pine Forest Tract with the 92 ac former E H T PAL property into one area. This combined area has parking at two locations on Rt. 559 and an access route from Betsy Scull Road. These combined parcels will be considered the Pine Forest area. We have opened this area to 12 hunters per season for Bow, Shotgun and Muzzleloader Seasons. Additional instruction will be given at both orientation meetings on Parking, Game Removal , and reporting Trespasser's.
