In Rhode Island the primary hunting seasons typically run from the second Saturday in September to the last day of February and from the third Saturday in April to the last day in May, however this can vary from year to year and depends on what game is being hunted. During hunting season you should wear at least 200 square inches (a hat OR a vest) of blaze orange. During shotgun deer season, which is typically in December, you should wear at least 500 square inches of blaze orange (a hat AND a vest). For more information see the RI DEM website.
Enjoy the Town of Middletown’s newest park. The former nursery property has been transformed into a public park with open fields, walking trails, landscaping, and vistas. It was created via a partnership with the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management, and the Aquidneck Land Trust.
