Applicants must be 21 years of age or older and must provide a current and valid PA Driver’s license, or a current PA identification card that has the applicant’s current address. Applicants must provide their name, full address and phone number of two references (references cannot be family members).
Treasurer Linda Yeich said “Many changes are happening with hunting and doe licenses. In April, I will be attending our spring Treasurer’s conference along with PA Game Commission to learn what new procedures will be taking effect. I will keep the hunters in Schuylkill County informed on these changes. Please like and follow my face book page “Schuylkill County Treasurer’s Office” as I will post updated information as it becomes available.”
Many of the applications for the Treasurer’s office are accessible on the new Schuylkill County website (www.schuylkillcountypa.gov).
