DES MOINES -- The Iowa Becoming an Outdoors Woman program one-day winter workshop has sessions available for participants who have put off registering until the last minute. The workshop is Feb. 5 in Clear Lake at the Tanglefoot Girl Scout Camp on the south shore of Clear Lake.

Participants will choose one of four different sessions in the morning and one of four sessions in the afternoon. Session topics include ice fishing, turkey hunting, falconry, fly tying, snowshoeing, winter survival/orienteering and game care and cooking. The cross country skiing session is full. The $50 registration includes class instruction and materials, and a continental breakfast, lunch and snack.

Becoming an Outdoors Woman is an international program aimed primarily at women, but is an opportunity for anyone 18 years or older to learn outdoor skills usually associated with hunting and fishing, but useful for many outdoor pursuits.
