"The 2009 and 2010 calendars sold out quickly, so don't delay and order today," said Carl G. Roe, Game Commission executive director.

The 2011 calendar includes approved hunting and trapping season dates from Jan. 1-June 30, and tentative season dates for July 1-Dec. 31, as well as a reminder about National Hunting & Fishing Day in September, and many other interesting bits of information about wildlife and the outdoors.

The 2011 calendar features a year's worth of dramatic wildlife photos taken by current and retired agency employees, including: Jacob Dingel, radio dispatcher in the Northwest Region Office; Timothy C. Flanigan, retired Bedford County Wildlife Conservation Officer; Coy D. Hill, retired Deputy Wildlife Conservation Officer from Fulton County; and Hal Korber, Game Commission photographer in the Harrisburg office.  

Each month features a full-color photo of a different wildlife species.  This calendar's subjects are: fox squirrel; a flock of snow geese; golden eagle; great blue heron; a ruffed grouse chick; groundhogs; magnolia warbler; river otter; eastern meadowlark; chipmunk; white-tailed buck; northern cardinal.  

Also included are photo inserts of Game Commission employees conducting many wildlife management tasks. And, as in past years, there is plenty of room for writing in appointments and other personal important dates and scheduling information.

The calendar also provides a brief overview of the Game Commission and a list of contact information for the agency's Harrisburg headquarters and six region offices.
