🌿 WOMEN IN NATURE – Outdoor Adventure-DAY 1 🌿
I’m excited to be volunteering with Seven Bends State Park to help host their Women in Nature Program!
Day 1 is all about discovering the beauty and adventure of the Shenandoah River while building confidence in the outdoors.
🎣 Fly Fishing
🛶 Kayaking
🌿 Outdoor Adventure
💚 Connection & Community
Through hands-on instruction in fly fishing and kayaking, you'll have the opportunity to learn new skills, challenge yourself in a supportive environment, and experience the joy of exploring one of Virginia's beautiful natural resources.
Whether you're trying these activities for the first time or expanding your outdoor experience, today is about learning, building confidence, connecting with other women, and having fun!
