Cabela’s is planning a
Women and the Outdoors Weekend August
14-15 with most of the activities set for Saturday the 14th
with a full day of free seminars and activities geared toward women
getting out and enjoying all the outdoors has to offer.
This day-long series of
seminars will run from 10 am to 3 pm and will cover how to select your
first gun, go over camping equipment and where to go, discuss Nevada’s big
game and wildlife, include an outdoor clothing fashion show during a
hosted lunch, talk about fishing basics, give some hiking tips and safety
ideas, demonstrate pepper spray and self-defense and give an introduction
to CCW.
We are looking for women
in your organizations who might have some interest in coming to this free
day of fun and information. Please help us pass the word – either forward
this on to those female friends, staff and members who would find this of
interest, post on your web sites and include in your enewsletters. Anyone
interested should pre-register by calling Cabela’s at (775) 829-4100.
We’re providing a
complimentary lunch for all attendees and presenters and including a
coupon to Cabela’s as well as a few small gift items. Should you have any
questions, please contact me at (775) 829-4128 or via email at
james.klund@cabelas.com
Hopefully we will see
many of your female friends, staff and members at
Cabela’s Women and the Outdoors Day on
Saturday, Aug. 14. The tentative schedule is below for your
reference. Thanks in advance for any help in promoting this to your female
staff, friends and members. A couple of dates to remember for setting up
booths at our store to promote your organization would be our largest
promotions of the year with Fall Great Outdoor Days I August 21-22 and
Fall Great Outdoor Days II August 28-29.
