Fairfield Lake State Park is a healthy, beautiful and thriving park.

One of the ways this is handled is with a very carefully planned and handled draw hunt.

Hunting is used to help keep a healthy balance of animals to habitat; too many animals can cause long-term problems.

The dates for the draw hunts this year are, Sunday, December 27, 2020 at 4:00 p.m. through Friday, January 1, 2020 at 1:00 p.m.

Following the first hunt will be the second from Tuesday, January 5, 2020 4:00 p.m. through Friday, January 8, 2020 at 1:00 p.m.

Remember, the park will be closed during this time, and unavailable to anyone not involved in the hunts.
