Every
precaution should be taken to safeguard cleanup volunteers.
All volunteers should wear orange safety vests and be
informed of this hunting season. Know your cleanup area
and any possible nearby hunting grounds - open fields,
woods, low population density, etc. Contact your local
Pennsylvania Game Commission office for advice on your
cleanup location in regards to possible hunting activities.
Cleanups in active hunting areas may need to be postponed
until after 12 noon on weekdays and Saturdays or until
Sundays. For the complete Pennsylvania Game Commission
Hunting Digest visit
