As outfitters and leasing agents continue to gobble up access to private hunting land, there is still opportunity for public hunting in Harvey County. In 2018, the Harvey County Commission approved limited seasonal hunting at East Park. The agreement has been approved through the 2025-26 season. This seasonal hunting is restricted to archery deer, waterfowl and archery spring turkey. For those pursuing deer, they can hunt archery deer on the tracts known as Harvey County A and Harvey County C. Harvey County A is located north of Northeast 24th Street, and Harvey County C is located north of Northeast 12th Street. Only one hunter can use the area per day but may bring up to two additional people. Waterfowlers are allowed to use one of the five blinds on the northernmost section of East Lake. One person can reserve one blind per day but can bring up to three other people. Only waterfowl hunting is allowed on Harvey County B.
