Sport Spotlight
A Hunter's Haven Expands
Hunters head to Calvert Count in November for the kickoff of the deer firearms season and to track squirrel, rabbit and several game birds. Calvert County's  parks and wild life management areas provide more than 6,700 acres of nature's best camouflage for every skill level and hunting enthusiast.
Hunters brought their climbers, ladders and ground blinds to Calvert County to bag 1,665 deer in the 2015-16 season. This year promises an even bigger return as Parker's Creek Wildlife Management Area has been added to the list of available public hunting properties. Opening Parker's Creek to hunting adds 1,810 additional acres to the sport.
The Maryland Department of Natural Resources Wildlife and Heritage Services oversees several wildlife management areas in Calvert County for hunting during the fall and winter. Call 301-743-5161 for reservations and more information.
Learn more about hunting sites, schedules and more:
A Maryland hunting permit is required in all of the hunting sites and Parker's Creek requires daily reservations.
