From the New Jersey Division of Fish and Wildlife:

BOW is back!

Registrations are now being accepted for a special "Becoming an Outdoors-Woman" coastal workshop scheduled for Sept. 5-7 at the Grand Hotel in Cape May.

The BOW workshop is directed toward women but is an opportunity for anyone 18 years or older who wishes to learn new outdoor skills, improve existing skills and enhance appreciation of the outdoors.

Participants will have opportunities to experience a variety of activities including surf, bay, kayak or deep sea fishing, orienteering, snorkeling, birding, crabbing and clamming, archery, falconry, seafood preparation and much more.

This workshop is designed for those who have never tried these activities and hope for an opportunity to learn; are beginners who hope to improve their skills; have some outdoor experience and would like to expand abilities; and are excited to meet other outdoor enthusiasts.

Workshop information and a registration form can be obtained at http://www.njfishandwildlife.com/pdf/2008/bow_coastal08.pdf.

The registration deadline is August 15th.
