CouesWhitetail Report post Posted December 4, 2006 Hi All, If you know a woman interested in learning about outdoor activities, consider buying her a weekend at the Becoming an Outdoors Woman camp. The one in February is held near phoenix and has nicer accomodations than the one in the spring or fall. I will be teaching classes on Arizona Wildlife and Desert Hunting. But there are lots and lots of other classes and activities. Classes include canoeing, kayaking, hiking, photography, flyfishing, outdoor cooking, predator calling and lots of others. I have attached a PDF of the registration materials and there is a press release with info below. If anyone has questions, let me know. I have been involved with this program for years. The ladies have a great time and we have lots of great instructors. Amanda BOW_DELUXE_2006_Registration_Packet.pdf Becoming an Outdoors Woman Deluxe This retreat will make an ideal Christmas gift for the discriminating woman in your life. Lots of outdoor fun without the inconveniences of camping! The Arizona Wildlife Federation will be sponsoring its second annual winter Becoming an Outdoors Woman (BOW) workshop. The dates are February 2-4, 2006. It will be in the Goldfield Mountain Range. This retreat will showcase the beauty and wonder of our Sonoran Desert. The place is Saguaro Lake Ranch, which is a historical resort style retreat located in the Tonto National Forest in the heart of the Arizona Sonoran desert. The banks of the Salt River are a fly rod cast away and Stewart Mountain Dam, which backs up Saguaro Lake, is a short walk. There will numerous fishing opportunities for beginning and intermediate anglers, including bass fishing with Bass pro Chad Witty, bow fishing with World Class Archer Kathy Green, beginning fishing with AZ Game & Fish, and intermediate fly fishing with the Desert Fly Casters. The Arizona Audubon Society will be there pointing out a variety of birds, both winter visitors and native species. We’ve planned sessions on hunting desert critters like javelina and Coues deer, a varmint call stand, field archery, natural history of the desert, canoeing & kayaking, and dutch oven cooking. For those who feel the need to explore the Goldfields, there will be hiking, photography, and trick, track, trail Sonoran style. There will also be horseback rides for everyone. We are working on evening activities that include cowboy singing around the campfire, a presentation on bats, wine tasting and wildlife bingo. The cost is $420, which includes a horseback ride, instruction, program materials, use of equipment, deluxe lodging and meals Friday evening through Sunday noon. Details of class descriptions can be found at www.azwildlife.org or call 480-644-0077. You can also email Tracy at hockeymom329@cox.net anytime.
