Becoming an Outdoors-Woman Program Schedules Winter Workshops
The North Dakota Game and Fish Department’s Becoming an Outdoors-Woman program has scheduled one-day winter workshops Feb. 9 at Devils Lake, and Feb. 29, March 1 and 2 at Lake Metigoshe State Park, Bottineau.
The Devils Lake class is geared toward ice fishing and darkhouse spearfishing. All equipment will be provided.
Lake Metigoshe offers a variety of classes. A class on dog sledding is available all three days with a limit of six participants per session (this class fills very fast). Basic snowshoeing and winter tracking, winter ecology and cross-country skiing, and ice fishing is available March 1, with each class limited to 12-15 students. Nancy Boldt, program coordinator, said cross-country skiing and ice fishing will again be offered on Sunday if there is enough interest.
Women interested in the workshops should register immediately due to limited space available. The cost is $40 for one day or $60 for two days. Preregistration with payment is required. Equipment and snacks 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 ndgf@nd.gov.
