On Saturday, January 6th, 2024, the Friends of Rydell and Glacial Ridge Refuges Association will be hosting a Snowshoe Lacing Workshop at the Rydell NWR Visitor Center. The one-day workshop will run from 9:00 am – 5:00 pm. Class participants will learn how to lace their own pair of Ojibwa-style snowshoes.
This is a fun, hands-on class. You’ll be able to work at your own pace with provided instructions and friendly presenters to assist you along the way. The goal of the class at the end of the day is to send you home with at least one completed snowshoe. Snacks and lunch will be provided, courtesy of the Friends of Rydell and Glacial Ridge Refuges Association.
Pre-registration is required, and class size is limited to 20 participants. The deadline for registration is December 15th. For more information and to get a registration form, contact Bill Peterson at 218-280-1109 or bpeterso@umn.edu.
