HARRISBURG, Pa., June 11, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The agenda for the Pennsylvania Board of Game Commissioners' upcoming quarterly meeting, slated for June 25-26, was posted on the agency's website (www.pgc.state.pa.us) today, and can be viewed by clicking the "Commissioners' Meeting June 25-26" in the "Quick Clicks" box in the right-hand column of the homepage.  The meeting will be held in the auditorium of the agency's headquarters, 2001 Elmerton Ave., just off the Progress Avenue exit of Interstate 81 in Harrisburg.

On Monday, June 25, beginning at 8:30 a.m., the Board will hear public comments. Individuals interested in offering public testimony – limited to five minutes – may begin to register at 7:45 a.m. on a first-come, first-to-speak basis.  At the completion of the public comment period, the Board will receive various staff reports.

Also on Monday, graduates of the Game Commission's recent Wildlife Certificate Program will be presented with awards. The Wildlife Certificate Program offered those interested in getting more out of their outdoors excursions or pursuing a career in an outdoor field the opportunity to participate in a variety of non-credit courses from agency personnel on topics ranging from wildlife identification and habitat management to wildlife photography and videography.

On Tuesday, June 26, beginning at 8:30 a.m., the Game Commission will take up its prepared agenda.  Doors open at 7:45 a.m.

Additionally, the Game Commission will begin its webcast of the Board's meeting with the staff reports on June 25, and when the meeting opens on June 26, through its website (www.pgc.state.pa.us) for those unable to attend the meeting in Harrisburg. Those interested in viewing the meeting will be able to click on a special icon that will be placed on the agency's website once the staff reports begin.
