Welcome to Washington Outdoor Women (WOW)!

Our Mission….to help women achieve confidence and self-reliance in the outdoors through traditional and relevant skills taught in hands-on workshops.

Our Vision….to encourage women to feel actively connected to the outdoors, become good stewards of our environment, and to pass on these values to the next generation.

Whether new to an outdoor skill or upping your knowledge base, WOW can help you gain confidence to go further when you get out there as a Washington Outdoor Woman.  We look forward to seeing you in the outdoors!
