Cornell Cooperative Extension of Ontiario County will provide coordination of DEC's Beyond Becoming an Outdoors-Woman (BBOW) Program, an auxiliary effort of the New York State Becoming an Outdoors-Woman Program (BOW).

These programs coordinate volunteer instructors to provide women with information, encouragement, and hands-on instruction in outdoor skills such as fishing, shooting, archery, hunting, trapping, outdoor photography, map and compass, survival, camping, canoeing, field dressing wild game, and much more. While BOW focuses on large, multi-day workshops, BBOW generally provides smaller single day, “next step” classes and events for women who have completed a beginner class at a BOW workshop. The coordinator will work adjunct to DEC’s Hunter Education Program (HEP), seeking to maintain and build relationships with DEC partner groups to foster the program's relationship with underserved communities, non-traditional user groups, and women across New York state. The Department intends to award this work pursuant to its discretionary purchasing authority under State Finance Law §163(6) and therefore has not issued an open solicitation for quotes. If your firm believes you can carry out this work, please send along any supporting information and the Department will consider it for this and any potential future awards.
