Remember Deer Hunting  Season!

Deer season opened on Saturday, September 17, in all four KCC communities. It ends January 28, 2023.
For all properties, including Kendal at Longwood, Crosslands, Cartmel and Coniston;
Trails are open from 9:30 am-2:30 pm. We have stopped
hunting on Sundays and Mondays so that residents in all 4 KCC communities can enjoy the trails longer. Feel free to walk the trails and natural areas both Sundays and Mondays.
Please do not use the trails during the active hunt times (before 9:30 am and after  2:30pm Tuesday-Saturday), but if you must go into the hunt areas, please stay on the trails and wear bright colors.
o ALL pets must be leashed. This is very important for the success of a hunt.
o Trailheads will be posted to remind hikers of the active hunting.
o Hunting at Kendal, Crosslands and Cartmel will be archery only.
If you have any questions or concerns about KCC’s Deer Management Program, please
call: Casey Groff, KCC Grounds, 610-388-5558
