The Henry County Deputies for the Hungry program which was set to stop on Dec. 30th, 2022 is being extended.
Henry County Sheriff Josh Frey said, “We have currently taken in 90 deer so we still have plenty of freezer space left. The deer shed will continue to take deer until Jan. 13th, 2023. After closing on Jan 13th, 2023 we’ll wait for the CWD test results to come back on each deer then announce a date for the processed deer to be given away.”
Just as a reminder from Frey: Deer must be field dressed and hunters must have confirmation number prior to us accepting any deer. “Hunters please help us fill the freezers and feed the hungry.” he said.
