Weather Causes Postponement of Deer Open House in Northeast Pennsylvania
HARRISBURG, Pa., Feb. 26 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Due to weather conditions this weekend, Pennsylvania Game Commission Northeast Region Director Steve Schweitzer today announced that the deer open house scheduled for tomorrow, Feb. 27, will be postponed.
The event was to be held from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. at PPL Wallenpaupack Environmental Learning Center, 126 PPL Drive in Hawley. Schweitzer noted that the agency will work to reschedule the event at the PPL facility, but is unable to announce a new date at this time.
"Open houses are used by the agency as an interactive public outreach tool to explain and answer questions about the agency's deer management program," Schweitzer said. "In order to maximize this effort, we will need to reschedule the event to a different weekend because of the severe weather that hit Pennsylvania, especially here in the northeastern corner of the state."
Schweitzer said the agency would make an announcement about a rescheduled open house once details can be finalized.
