Deer Hunt for the Disabled

The Wisconsin River Power Company (WRPCO) is proud to host a disabled deer hunt. The disabled hunt project is an opportunity to provide people with severe physical disabilities a quality hunting experience that demonstrates to our communities we serve our corporation's social and environmental integrity.

The hunting lands are located near the Petenwell and Castle Rock Flowages in central Wisconsin. The Petenwell Wildlife Area is an area approximately 750 acres in size that has been set aside by WRPCO as a wildlife refuge. The majority of the area is permanently closed to any other hunting activities.

Buck Masters American Foundation (BMAF), a national outdoor recreation organization, help promote the event. The hunt followed the regulatory requirements of the WDNR for special hunts for people with permanent disabilities.
