Women, men and youth who want to learn the basics of deer hunting are
invited to the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources’ (DNR) annual
Deer Day. 

The event, hosted by the DNR’s Becoming An Outdoors Woman (BOW)
Program, will be held from 9:30 a.m. - 5 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 16 at the
Wilkens Farm near Mora in Kanabec County. Youth who posses a firearms
safety certificate can attend if accompanied by a guardian.

“Deer Day is a great opportunity to learn the basics of deer hunting
in a supportive, safe and non-intimidating outdoor setting,” said
Linda Bylander, who coordinates family and women’s outdoor skills
classes.

Participants will learn about deer, deer habitat and deer habits during
several presentations. Hands-on activities include learning to track
deer; learning how to place and use deer stands safely; and learning
shotgun, rifle, archery and muzzleloader shooting. Instructors will be
DNR wildlife staff, DNR conservation officers, BOW volunteers and
members of the Minnesota Deer Hunters Association.

“The beauty of this event is that participants learn from DNR deer
management and hunting safety experts, as well as others who have skills
to share,” said Bylander.

The program fee is $20 per family, which includes an instructional DVD
on deer hunting and field dressing.

To register, contact BOW Coordinator Linda Bylander at 218-833-8628 or
via e-mail.

Registration is limited to the first 60 registrations. Lunch will be
served.
