A free raffle will be held for participants. Prizes include Columbia Sportswear clothing, survival kits, wildlife viewing guides and books on women in fly fishing written by a local author. Several ODFW employees will be on hand to give tips and lend equipment to all willing participants. The key to enjoying the outdoors is knowing how to dress. Bill Inman from Columbia Sportswear will present information on clothing options, layering and fabrics.
Cornish game hens, fresh bread, and pineapple upside down cake are all possible.
An introduction to map and compass skills will be presented. An ODFW biologist will give tips on where to go. In addition to the experts, many brochures and educational resources will be available to help you plan everything from a short hike to a weekend in the woods.
