See below for a news announcement regarding re-classification of 86 acres of land at Jordan Game Lands to archery only. Typically these archery areas allow the use of rimfire rifles for small game, but since the article makes no mention of exempting rimfire rifles I thought I would share the article and meeting times if anyone is interested.

Commission Schedules Public Meeting About Jordan Game Land
Raleigh, N.C. (April 19, 2010) – The N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission will hold a public meeting to hear comments on a proposal to convert 86 acres of Jordan Game Land to archery-only hunting in the vicinity of the new Chatham County Northeast District Park, planned for construction off of Big Woods Road near Jordan Lake.

The meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m. June 2 in Building 2, Multipurpose Room of Central Carolina Community College, located at 764 West Street in Pittsboro (approximately 1 mile west of the traffic circle on U.S. 64 Business West).

For more information, call the Commission’s Wildlife Management Division at
(919) 707-0050. For more information on game lands, visit the interactive game land map at www.ncwildlife.org.
