Palmetto Outdoors Women’s Retreat
POWR is the traditional weekend workshop offering up to 8 introductory classes over a weekend. Our POWR event is designed for women to experience nature and outdoor recreation with like-minded ladies in a non-competitive environment. Nature walks, kayaking, fishing, outdoor cooking, and photography are just a few of the nearly 30 classes from which to choose. Participants will have the opportunity to select up to 8 classes and be introduced to many outdoor activities. For this weekend long event, registration will cover the workshop, a T-shirt, meals, and lodging.
POWR UP
POWR Up is an overnight retreat that offers longer classes to allow for in-depth instruction on each topic but still offers the same supportive and non-competitive environment as POWR. Participants choose 3 classes over the 2 day event that include classes like backpacking, kayak fishing, outdoor photography, hunting basics, a guided hike with a Master Naturalist, and more. Each participant should leave the classes feeling confident and ready to try their new skills on their own. For this one night event, the registration fee covers the workshop, a T-shirt, and lunch on Saturday. Lodging and meals (with the exception of Saturday lunch) for this event are on your own.
POWR+
SCWF also offers POWR+ events throughout the year. These one-day workshops around the state were developed to offer an even deeper immersion into outdoor activities and are open to all women. If you have taken an introductory class at one of our events or if you participate in an outdoor activity but want to connect even more with other women around the state, these one day classes are for you. Topics will vary based on demand and instructors. We launched POWR+ with a Women’s Fly Fishing event on the Chauga River followed by an On-the-Water Boating Orientation/Boat trailering event. Our popular Women’s Spring Hike at Forty Acre Rock, is also a POWR+ event. Upcoming POWR+ events include a Dove Shoot, Saltwater Inshore Fishing using Artificial Lures, and a Sporting Clays event.
