Through Women in the Outdoors events, women from all walks of life are being given the
chance to experience the thrill of outdoor activities such as camping, recreational shooting,
archery, fishing, fly fishing, wild turkey hunting, bird watching, canoeing, and outdoor cooking,
and many other fun activities. The events also allow women to develop a greater
understanding of wildlife conservation and meet others who share their enthusiasm. We know
that not every woman is interested in hunting so we ensure there is a balanced mix of hunting,
fishing, and non-harvesting classes available for everyone.
If you’ve never seen how enthusiastic and amazed women are when they hit their first clay
pigeon or see how great the women are at cheering their classmates on when they hit OR miss
a clay pigeon; it’s a pretty awesome sight.
Maybe shooting isn’t your forte; what about fishing or fly fishing? How about experiencing the
serenity of learning to fish and then catching your first fish?
Have you ever had the desire to learn how to shoot a bow? You may never go archery hunting,
but maybe you like the thought of target practice.
Have you ever wondered how women in the 1800’s lived? How about taking a pioneer women
skills class and learn about building fires with flint and steel, see replicas of guns that were
used at that time, how about learning about what goes on at a civil war reenactment, what
about learning to throw a tomahawk or knife?
These are just a couple of the different types of classes that are held at events.
“The Women in the Outdoors program allows the NWTF to reach an entirely new audience, one
that has been overlooked in the past for outdoors sports and conservation,” said Rob Keck,
NWTF CEO.
Women in the Outdoors programs are held at various types of locations. From shooting clubs,
archery clubs, hunting clubs, plantations, women’s groups, guide services, to private farms, or
anywhere we can gather for a safe and fun day in the outdoors. The events are held across the
country with experts on hand to teach in a non-competitive manner.
Women in the Outdoors members are from all over North America and Canada. We have
Women’s Regional Coordinators for every state, so no matter where you’re from, there’s a
Coordinator who will be happy to assist you.
