St. Paul's Crosby Farm Regional Park will be closed to the public twice this fall as archers thin a deer herd.
The city's Parks and Recreation Department is teaming up with the Metro Bowhunters Resource Base to manage the deer population in the Highland Park area.
A special permit archery hunt will be held in Crosby Farm Regional Park from Oct. 19-21 and from Nov. 9-11. The park will be closed to the public those days.
It's the second year a hunt has been held in the park. Archers already have been selected for this year's hunt.
