Linda K. Burch at Cabela's Spring Outdoors Days

Today, I would like to introduce you to a very vivacious huntress. Someone I became acquainted with via an excursion to one of the outdoor suppliers I like to visit. A lady sold on getting women into the outdoors to tackle both archery and gun seasons... Linda K. Burch, Executive Director of Women Hunters. Hubby and I got to visit with Linda exclusively for almost two hours as she was setting up for the Turkey and Bear Hunting seminars at our local Cabela's at Owatonna,MN. She introduced us to some neat pictures of her adventures and DVDs of both Turkey and Bear hunts of herself and a few male compatriots. Turkey calling became apart of the seminar syllabus. Oh boy! Hubby took to the slate and mouth calls a whole lot better than I did. Now, I have something to practice on before the season comes. Need to be getting out there to find where they are sleeping. Linda, is a writer...as of this writing I haven't had an opportunity to read any of her articles, but I will certainly let you know what I find... As a part of introducing you to Linda I have a True Timber Camo Turkey Hunt She participated in down in Georgia. Hope you enjoy.

It is being put here for the sole purpose of sharing one person's positive hunting results , an inspiration for the upcoming season.

Spring Outdoors Days at Cabela's

This week in my e-mail box I received notification from one of my outdoor supplies providers - that they would be having some informational and hands-on workshops. Twenty-six stores of the Cabela's Retail outlets will be hosting Cabela's Spring Outdoors Days. The location closest to me at Owatonna,MN. will be starting their first weekend event at 11:00 AM, Saturday March 15th,2008. If you aren't able to make it on Saturday they will have repeat events from 1:00 - 4:00 PM on Sunday the 16th. Then again the following weekend there are activities planned. Just wish they were closer so it would be easier to hangout and take in the information in the seminars. The events are getting everybody going on fishing, which if you haven't done yet with ice fishing, you probably will be gearing up for Spring and Summer. Ladies, they are getting some guest speakers for us too. Shannon Hentges from the Women Anglers Association will be there to enlighten those able to attend. She is a lady who can tell you some exciting experiences she has had in fishing ,and about being apart of a women's Angler's association. Shannon will be able to tell you how you can get started with fishing because of her long time association with the sport. 1:00 p.m.(both Saturday and Sunday) Location:Great Lakes Conference Room. A representative from the Women Hunters Organization, Linda Burch will be available to relate her adventures in Spring Turkey or Bear Hunting - Some of her accomplishments will be presented in an informal seminar. She will also tell you about the Women Hunters organization she belongs to and how you can also get in on some of the adventures and fun. 2:00 p.m. (both Saturday and Sunday gatherings are at the same time and location) Location: From the front entrance, take the left wood walkway to the fishing department on the left. I, for one, have plans to attend to keep working towards my goal to become a more complete outdoors woman. Maybe I will see you there!
