Becoming an Outdoors-Woman Program Schedules Winter Workshops 012104
The North Dakota Game and Fish Department's Becoming an Outdoors-Woman program has scheduled one-day winter workshops Feb. 28 at Lake Metigoshe State Park, Bottineau, and March 20 at Devils Lake.
Beyond BO-W at Lake Metigoshe State Park has morning and afternoon sessions in dog sledding and winter survival; tracking and snowshoeing; and winter ecology and cross-country skiing. Participants must choose one of the three courses, with classes restricted to 15 entrants in each, according to Nancy Boldt, department BO-W coordinator.
The class scheduled for Devils Lake focuses on ice fishing, Boldt said. "Women signing up for ice fishing will learn about everything from ice augers to small lures, how to set up, jigging techniques, and how to be safe and warm on the ice."
Women interested in the workshops should register immediately due to limited space available. The cost is $45 and pre-registration with payment is required. Equipment and lunch will be provided.
Information and registration forms can be obtained by contacting Nancy Boldt, North Dakota Game and Fish Department, 100 N. Bismarck Expressway, Bismarck, ND 58501-5095; 701-328-6312; or email [url "mailto:nboldt@state.nd.us"]nboldt@state.nd.us[/url].
