Interested in Lyme Disease and the Deer
Management Plan for our area? Get 2 for the price of 1 at a June 18 meeting
(7-10 PM, Redland
Middle School). There
will be a 45 minute presentation on Minimizing Risk from Lyme Disease by
representatives of the US Department of Agriculture Parasite Biology Laboratory
and the Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. Following that, there
will be a 30 minute review of the Montgomery County Deer Management Group's
Annual (FY 2002) Report in the Deer Management Plan and Recommendations for FY
2003. It was this group that recommended reducing the number of deer in our
area by a controlled hunt; this hunt was announced by signs posted in our area
in the recent past. Now that the hunt is completed, you may be interested in
the details and the future plans.Copies of the report and recommendations are
posted at www.mc-mncppc.org/environ/deer.
