Bull Creek Hosts 10th Annual Women In The Outdoors Event and Banquet

The National Wild Turkey Federation’s Women In The Outdoors Program was held at Bull Creek Rod and Gun Club this past Saturday June 4th. Event co-coordinator and club member Lori Lojak reports that 25 women participated in classes including handguns, rifle, shotgun, archery, self-defense, soap making, Dutch oven and bird watching.

Lori reported “The women really enjoyed themselves; some first timers found that they were very good at shooting, with one hitting 4 out of 6 [clay] birds and this was the first time she ever shot a gun!

Women in the Outdoors events are held across the country using experts and trained professionals to teach outdoor skills in a noncompetitive environment. The Women in the Outdoors program helps members develop outdoor skills and emphasizes the importance of wildlife management and the role of hunters in conservation.
