Women’s "Winter Workshop" To Be Offered

Print

If finding a Christmas gift for the outdoorswoman on your list has you stumped, Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks has the answer.  Why not give her something she is sure to love, and that will pay dividends for years to come?   FWP is offering a winter workshop in 2002 as part of its highly popular "Becoming an Outdoors Woman" program.

Ice fishing, cross-country skiing and snow shoeing are some of the "hot" topics covered in the classes being offered Feb. 8-10 at the University of Montana’s Lubrecht Forest, 30 miles east of Missoula off U.S. Highway 200.

At the workshop, women may also attend classes on identifying animal tracks, making garments from fur, and cooking wild game.

An extension of FWP’s  "Becoming an Outdoors Woman" program, the workshops introduce adult women to new outdoor skills and helps to improve the existing skills of those who already pursue some winter outdoor activities. But best of all, the workshops are a fun way to learn skills that could help make the next winter outdoors adventure safer and more enjoyable.

For more information on the workshop, or to receive a registration packet for gift giving, call FWP at (406) 444-3188, or send an email to: llodman@state.mt.us.  If you’re planning to put this workshop in someone’s Christmas stocking, please give us a call now to arrange the details.
