Public drawing to be held on August 20, 2009

AKRON, OH –  An agreement between the City of Akron and the Ohio Division of Wildlife will allow permits to be drawn for 12 waterfowl hunting blinds on Mogadore Reservoir in Portage County.

The drawing will be held on Thursday, August 20th, at the Goodyear Hunting and Fishing Club, 1221 Wingfoot Lake Road, Mogadore, Ohio.  Registration begins at 5:30 p.m. and the drawing will follow promptly at 6:00 p.m. Hunters should arrive one half hour prior to the drawing and must bring his or her 2009 hunting license, federal duck stamp, or Ohio wetlands habitat stamp.

Each of the 12 blinds will be awarded in one week increments throughout the early goose season and waterfowl season.
