Registration has opened for New Hampshire's 2015 Becoming an Outdoors-Woman (BOW) Winter Workshop, a one-day program where women can learn outdoor skills to enjoy during the winter months.

The workshop will be held on Saturday, February 14, 2015, at N.H. Fish and Game's Owl Brook Hunter Education Center in Holderness, N.H. A fee of $55 covers the workshop, lunch and most equipment use. New this year, a discounted registration fee of $25 applies to participants age 18-25. You must be at least 18 years old to take part in BOW programs.

A brochure and registration forms are now available at http://www.nhbow.com. If you are interested in attending the workshop, please send your registration form and fee in soon. Only forms that are mailed in will be accepted (no walk-ins).

Winter BOW participants choose a single outdoor activity to explore during the daylong workshop. Five different options are offered: Women can learn how to ice-fish, explore winter outdoor survival skills, track wildlife on snowshoes, try snowmobiling (beginners only) or experience the popular 'Shoe and Shoot class (woodland target shooting on snowshoes).

New Hampshire BOW programs are co-sponsored by the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department and the New Hampshire Wildlife Federation (http://www.nhwf.org), a nonprofit group that advocates for the promotion and protection of hunting, fishing and trapping, as well as the conservation of fish and wildlife habitat.

The New Hampshire Fish and Game Department is the guardian of the state's fish, wildlife and marine resources and their habitats. Visit http://www.wildnh.com
