Cape Nature Center Will Give Tips on Deer Processing
Cape Girardeau, Missouri - Once a hunter has bagged a deer, the work is only half over. How to field dress it, skin it, process the meat and store it for future tasty meals are skills hunters need to know. The Cape Girardeau Conservation Nature Center’s Field to Freezer program, Saturday, Oct. 8, from 10 a.m. to noon will help hunters learn how to process their own deer.

Attendees will learn how to field dress and properly care for their harvested deer and how to process the venison for freezer storage at this free program. Regulations and supplies needed for processing deer meat will also be discussed.

Pre-registration is required because space is limited. This program is for ages 16 and up. To register, call the nature center at (573)290-5218.

Information about deer and deer hunting in Missouri can be found at mdc.mo.gov/hunting. Information about this and other nature programs at the Cape Girardeau Conservation Nature Center can be found at mdc.mo.gov/CapeNatureCenter.

Dexter Police Department Releases Results of Child Restraint Checks
Campaign Reminds Motorists to Boost and Buckle Kids Under 8


Dexter, Missouri - The Dexter Police Department participated in the Child Passenger Safety (CPS) Week Law Enforcement Campaign conducted September 18-24, 2016.

During the enforcement effort, officers issued a total of 13 traffic tickets including: 7 speeding tickets; 3 seat belt tickets:  1 stop sign violation ticket: 1 no operator license ticket and 1 uninsured motorist ticket.  2 warrant arrests were made as a result of the crackdown.  Officers also issued 36 hazardous moving violation warnings and 35 non hazardous moving violation warnings. 

There were a total of 75 traffic stops conducted during this campaign.

Missouri law requires all children under the age of eight to be in an appropriate child safety seat or booster seat unless they are 80 lbs or 4’9” tall. “It’s so important for parents and caregivers to understand the importance of child restraints,” said Lieutenant Benton.  

“It’s not just about following the law – child restraints help prevent serious injury and may even save your child’s life.” Funding for this effort was provided through a grant from the Missouri Department of Transportation’s Traffic & Highway Safety Division in cooperation with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Missouri Safety Center.
