2017 Massachusetts Women in the Outdoors Event – Auburn MA
July 29, 2017 @ 7:00 am - 5:00 pm
Women in the Outdoors is dedicated to providing interactive educational outdoor opportunities for women ages 13 and older. Local chapters throughout the nation conduct outdoor learning events featuring hands-on activities. http://www.masswito.com/home.html The chapters and events are part of an outreach program by the National Wild Turkey Federation (NWTF), www.nwtf.org .
The Women in the Outdoors Program supports both hunting and non-hunting activities. All Women in the Outdoors members do not necessarily participate in the act of hunting; however it is our hope that through quality educational programs, all women attendees will form a better understanding of the importance that shooting sports, ethical hunting and scientific wildlife management go hand in hand in our ongoing conservation efforts.
Portions of this event are sponsored by the Mass Wildlife “Becoming an Outdoors Woman” program.
The 2017 WITO Event will feature 29 different instructional classes, seminars and activities. All of our classes are designed with the beginner in mind (unless otherwise noted). Come and enjoy a fun day with friends and other Women in the Outdoors!
