Dear Parents,
We have been notified by the Mt. Lebanon Municipality that they will conduct a deer management archery program that will run December 26, 2014 to January 24, 2015 in Bird Park, Robb Hollow Park, McNeilly Park and at the municipal golf course.
Please see the Deer Management Archery Program description on the municipal website for further information http://www.mtlebanon.org/
Sincerely,
Timothy J. Steinhauer, Ed.D.
Superintendent of Schools
Mt. Lebanon School District
What did you do today to improve the life of a child?
As a parent wrote to me:
So this came out. It is so utterly devoid of info, warnings or recommendations from the superintendent. Even the link that it sends you to is too much. How about clear and concise statements with specific warnings for parents?!!..."The Almanac came out with this article today. Mt. Lebanon to harvest deer (Harvest. Sounds so much better than Kill, right?)
“We have an overabundance of deer in Mt. Lebanon,” McDonough said. “The number of car crashes related to deer is also under reported."Dumb question, but how does the chief know that the number of car crashes related to deer is under reported?
