Hunting season is starting -- use caution

Hunting season is now upon us in Western New York. The first season began Oct. 14 (sunrise to sunset), and the final season is over on Tuesday, Dec. 19.

Please be very careful if you decide to walk in any wooded area during this time. If you do, wear blaze orange or some other very bright color. If you see a POSTED sign, get the landowner's permission to enter or you could be fined for trespassing.

Hunting is not allowed on Alfred University property which includes the woods behind the campus and around Foster Lake.
