Women in the Outdoors Event at Big Oaks National Wildlife Refuge
The third annual Outdoor Women at Big Oaks event will be held June 2, 7:45 a.m. to 4:45 p.m., at historic Old Timbers Lodge, Big Oaks National Wildlife Refuge, in Madison. The event is sponsored by Big Oaks Conservation Society, Big Oaks National Wildlife Refuge, and the Indiana Air National Guard at Jefferson Range.
This one-day program is designed to offer women age 14 and older the opportunity to gain valuable in-the-field skills and knowledge in an environment that encourages fun and success in the outdoors. This program is for women who want to learn outdoor skills and appreciation through inexpensive courses that address topics such as camping, fishing, outdoor photography, hiking, canoeing, bird watching, archery, and much more.
The material presented will provide the foundation to train as outdoor educators and to develop a network of outdoor enthusiasts with similar interests. Information on the event can be viewed at www.fws.gov/midwest/bigoaks/ or by calling the Big Oaks office, (812)273-0783.
