Anyone with a physical disability has one month from today to apply for a special deer hunt offered through Midwest Outdoors Unlimited. The hunts will take place at Stearns County’s Rockville Park & Nature Preserve & Spring Hill County Park in November 2017.
Midwest Outdoors Unlimited will select hunters for each of the hunts and supervise the hunts. Each hunter will be accompanied by a volunteer while in the park. Hunters will be allowed to use shotguns and muzzle loaders. The mission of Midwest Outdoors Unlimited is to provide outdoor recreational activities for Disabled American Veterans, disabled individuals, and disabled youth in Minnesota.
The parks will be closed to the general public during each of the hunts. The application deadline is October 15, 2017.
