The goal of the Becoming an Outdoors-Woman (BOW) scholarship program is to broaden participation in the 2022 weekend workshop to women 18 years old and older who would be unable to attend without financial assistance. BOW encourages anyone to apply for a scholarship. However, preference will be given to first-time attendees and those promoting diversity in outdoors education across the state through their community affiliations, culture, region, and/or profession.
Scholarships cover $140, which is half of the full registration fee. Applications must be received by April 22, 2022. Scholarship applications need to register online, pay their $140 registration fee, complete their medical form and complete the scholarship application below.
