Some Indiana State Parks Temporarily Closing For Deer Hunts

Several Indiana state parks will temporarily close for certain upcoming days so deer management hunts can take place.

Each hunt runs two days. The first is on Monday and Tuesday, and the second is on Monday, Nov. 30, and Tuesday, Dec. 1. The Indiana Department of Natural Resources says participating state parks will close to the general public on the evening before each of the two hunts.
