OPENINGS STILL AVAILABLE FOR
UPCOMING WOMENS OUTDOORS WORKSHOP

COLUMBUS, OH - Openings are still available for the popular Becoming An Outdoors-Woman workshop to be held May 16 thru 18 in Delaware County, according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) Division of Wildlife.

“There are still a few spots open for this popular program,” said Jen Dennison, coordinator of the Becoming An Outdoors-Woman program. “Women participating in the program are of all ages and walks of life seeking to learn or improve their outdoor skills. Since the program began in 1994, course instructors have received an impressive 100 percent approval rating from participants.”

Twice a year - in May and October - the workshop is held at Recreation Unlimited in Ashley, one hour north of Columbus.

Becoming An Outdoors-Woman is a national program designed to introduce women to a variety of outdoor skills in a comfortable, non-competitive environment. The program offers introductory classes for women to learn skills such as: firearms and safety, canoeing, hunting, photography, archery, fishing, bird watching, and much more.
