Becoming an Outdoors Woman (BOW) is a national nonprofit educational outreach program that offers outdoors skills workshops in 38 states and 6 Canadian provinces. We at the Colorado Wildlife Federation offer the program in Colorado, customized for Colorado’s unique outdoor recreational opportunities.
The nationally-recognized BOW program has proven to be a successful way to help women gain confidence and skills in the outdoors and introduce them to the pleasures and benefits of activities such as hunting, angling, trap and skeet, archery and much more!
Our BOW post-event evaluations over the past 5 years reveal time and again that women who had never hunted, fished, or even camped before attending BOW, now feel comfortable doing so and actively participate in both consumptive and non-consumptive outdoor activities. Register for our upcoming BOW events below! No experience is necessary, and we would love to have you!
BOW Weekend
The BOW Weekend is an opportunity for women at any fitness level, 18 years or older, to learn a variety of hands-on outdoor skills. No experience is necessary! BOW is a supportive environment conducive to learning, making lifelong friends, and having fun. Participants have the opportunity to take classes learning skills such as archery, fly fishing, orienteering, wilderness safety, self defense, and LOTS more!
