Dear Mr. Evans:
Paul and I own a portion of the Owl Bush on Amherst Island and three of
our friends deer hunt on our property during the hunting season.
We therefore wish to limit access to the property the week before
hunting season and the week of hunting.
During the year, we allow bird watchers to access our property in the
Owl Bush, but have a sign showing where the private property begins on
the one side. For the above reasons and in particular for safety
concerns, we are placing a sign with the private property sign,
stating "no public access beyond this point from Nov. 24th to Dec. 9th
inclusive, during deer hunting, for public safety."
We would appreciate it if you would advise your members accordingly.
We hope that it will not cause to much inconvenience. We'll remove it
immediately after deer hunting is over.
Thanks for you consideration.
Yours Truly
Gwen Lauret
