Lake Shelbyville-   The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and Lake Volunteers Association at Lake Shelbyville will hold the 25th Annual Deer Hunt for People with Disabilities on November 21, 22 and 23, 2014. Volunteers are needed to help with the hunt.  Volunteers will assist in helping hunters get to and from blinds, tracking, field dressing, dragging deer out of the woods and helping around deer camp. We are also looking for a couple volunteers in the mornings and evenings to help set up food, make coffee and clean up after meals.  A hunter/volunteer orientation and dinner will be held on the 20th of November.

Hunt camp is based out of the Okaw Bluff Group Houses located just south of Sullivan on IL Route 32.  All meals will be provided to volunteers and lodging arrangements are available on site. 

If you would like to help out with this event please contact Park Ranger Tyler Goble at 217-774-3951 ext: 7019.
