Outdoors-Woman Winter Workshop

Registration is now open for the 2010 Winter Becoming an Outdoors-Woman (B.O.W.) workshop, a one-day program for women to learn outdoor skills for winter activities. The 2010 Winter B.O.W. workshop will be held on Saturday, February 20, 2010 (snow date Sunday, February 21), at the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department’s Owl Brook Hunter Education Center in Holderness, N.H.

The workshop costs $55, which includes a box lunch. Participants must be at least 18 years old. B.O.W. is co-sponsored by N.H. Fish and Game and the New Hampshire Wildlife Federation.
