' Business & Professional1 Directory Thompson's Meat Market Brussels BILL’S autoWRECKING & REPAIR For the 1988 waterfowl season at the Hullett Provincial Wildlife Area, the Ministry of Natural Resources has made some changes to the controlled hunt. These changes will improve area management in terms of parking control, sanitation and the disposal of litter, and will enable the MNRto maximize hunting opportunities and at the same time provide a fair and equal opportunity to all hunters. To hunt in waterfowl unit Zone A on September 24 or September 26 through October 1, waterfowl hunters must: •register at L15, C7 parking lot (across from the viewing stand) for each day’s hunt; and •participate in a draw at 10 p.m. each night for the following day’s hunt. This draw determines the order of choice for hunting stakes, not the stake numberitseif. Thefirst52 vehicles in parking lot C7 will qualify for the draw (unoccupied vehicles will not be eligible). In the event that all 52 stakes are not taken in the draw, the remaining stakes will be allocated on a first come, first served basis. Although two people may occupy a hunting stake, only one drawper vehicle will be permitted. Overnight parking will be allow ed only in L15, C7, across from the viewing stand. Camper trailers will not be permitted. All remaining parking lots will be closed daily from 9 p.m. to 3 a.m. Upon receipt of his Hunter Validation/Harvest Card (HV/ HC), a hunterwill deposit his small game licence with the parking lot operator. Zone A parking lots will be opened at 3 a.m. each day. The HV/HC must be displayed so that it can be easily seen, preferably on the dash of the vehicle when parked in Zone A. After each day’s hunt, the hunter will return his HV/HC to the parking lot operator and retrieve his small game licence. Bag checks and hunter success information will be requested at this time. There will be no fees charged this season but in 1989, it will be likely necessary to implement a user fee for the waterfowl hunt at the Hullett Wildlife Area. •Fresh Meat •Freezer Orders •Custom Butchering byappointment Call Brussels887-6294 BLAKE Septic Tank Service Fast Efficient24 Hour Service CALL RAY 887-6800 McKILLOP MUTUAL INSURANCE COMPANY 91 Main St. South, Seaforth Office 527-0400 FARM, HOME, COMMERCIAL AUTO COVERAGES AGENTS GraemeCraig 887-9381 Bob McNaughton 527-1571 Donald Taylor 482-9976 Banter & MacEwan Insurance Brokers Ltd. 524-8376 John Wise Insurance Brokers Ltd. 482-3401 Fred Lawrence Electric Ltd.
