Women in Nature: Snowshoeing & Leave No Trace Workshop

Open to adult women. Cost: $10 per person; $8 for River Bend members.
Pre-registration is required.

Friday, January 10th, 2014, 5:00-7:00pm

Join us for our all new Women in Nature series, a monthly outdoor skills and natural history-based program specifically for women. Women in Nature (WIN) programs will take place the 2nd Friday of the month and will vary in lengths, times and prices according to the activities planned. River Bend will also have activities for children ages 5 to 12 during the times of the class for participants who wish to bring them.

January's program will include a Leave No Trace Awareness course, refreshments, and a naturalist-led snowshoe hike for participants and their families. Leave No Trace (LNT) is the leading organization in minimum impact outdoor recreation. The awareness course at River Bend will introduce you to the seven principles and each participant will be awarded a certificate. The course will last about an hour and is a fun and engaging way to learn more about enjoying the outdoors responsibly. After the LNT class we will break for light refreshments and then go outside for a guided snowshoe hike open to WIN participants and their families. Snowshoes will be provided.
