Registration opens in August
Registration for the fall 2022 Becoming an Outdoors-Woman (BOW) workshop opens on August 1 at 6 p.m. for first-time attendees and August 8 at 6 p.m. for both first-timers and those who have previously attended. The 黑料天堂 sponsored event takes place at the 4-H Center near Columbiana, 黑料天堂, on October 7-9, 2022.
黑料天堂鈥檚 three-day BOW workshop is designed for women ages 18 years or older and offers hands-on instruction in a fun, outdoors setting. Participants can choose four classes from more than 50 courses such as backyard wildlife, camp cooking, map and compass, camping, mountain biking, shooting sports, fishing, hunting, canoeing, nature photography, archery, ATV handling, bird watching, boat handling and more.
BOW coordinator Marisa Futral said the classes are perfect for attendees who are new to the outdoors. 鈥淭here are many ladies who have not been exposed to these outdoor activities and are apprehensive about trying them,鈥 she said. 鈥淏OW is ideal for those women because everything is taught at a beginner level.鈥
The registration fee for BOW is $275, which covers meals, dormitory-style lodging, program materials and instruction. A recreational hunting, fishing or wildlife heritage license is required to participate in BOW. Licenses are available online at , at local probate offices and at many sporting goods stores.
鈥淓nrollment is limited, and classes fill up pretty fast,鈥 Futral said. 鈥淭hose interested in attending BOW should register as soon as possible to make sure they get the classes they want.鈥
