In cooperation with the Tiffin-Seneca County Chapter of the Izaak Walton League, Seneca Conservation District (SCD) will host the annual Deer Hunt for the Mobility Impaired at Proving Ground Farm. This year’s hunt will take place December 2nd to December 6th. The purpose of this hunt is to give those who have mobility issues the opportunity to enjoy the outdoor experiences associated with deer hunting. Hunters are chosen randomly through a lottery system. There are four hunting blinds positioned throughout the farm and each blind will have one hunter for each day.

Volunteers from the Izaak Walton League participate by assisting hunters to and from their blinds and field dress the animal, if the hunter is successful. Meals are provided by the Izaak Walton League.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Andrea Smythe at the Seneca Conservation District office at (419) 447-7073 or [email protected] between the hours of 8:00 A.M. and 4:30 P.M. Monday through Friday.

Applications must be received by November 8th! The hunters selected from the lottery will be notified by SCD and receive further instructions.
