As usual, the first day’s hunt was most productive yielding 12 deer, most of them bucks. During the second hunt 6 whitetails fell to the bowhunters’ arrows. Even though the number of deer on the Island was considered about equal to last year’s population, they seemed to be far more wary following a season of hunting pressure. Heavy fog present during two of the hunts is credited by some with spooking the deer and reducing the kill. Hunters were selected on the basis of a drawing in September at which time nearly 100 hopeful applicants were turned away after the 300 available hunting permits had been filled.
Cadettes Tour Caverns
Recently our Cadette Girl Scout Troop +393 Went on an excursion to Luray Caverns. Many of the girls met at the Episcopal Churchyard, although others were picked up along the way to our destination. We were driven by Mrs. Edward Brown, Mrs. A. Y. Stokes and Mrs. C. J. Raney. After arriving we went through the beautiful caverns. Our journey afoot was 1 1/4 miles. We then had a fried chicken dinner at the Caverns and Coach Restaurant. Later we went through the “Old Car House”. Cheryl Taylor was a guest of Mauri Raney, and we all had a most enjoyable day.
