SC - Laws re: serving venison in PA

[Bronwynmgn at aol.com]

I got a message back from my brother.  He spoke to a friend of his on the 
Game Commission, who said that as far as he personally is concerned, serving 
legally hunted venison at something like an SCA event is not a problem, and 
that game gets served at a variety of club gatherings every year.

If you are advertising the dinner and the fact that it contains venison/game 
to the public as a profit maker, then it's commercialization of wildlife and 
is a problem.  So serving it at something like a church or fire hall supper 
which is designed as a fundraiser for the sponsoring group would be illegal.  
But a private event like an SCA feast would not be a problem unless the feast 
was specifically designed as a fund-raiser, and even then it's iffy.

Now mind you, my brother has not seen the exact wording of the law and wants 
to make it clear that other people might interpret it differently, especially 
if the use was close to the "serving venison for profit" line.  This also 
applies only to Pennsylvania.
