Upcoming Events

TWIN Workshops

We’re excited to be resuming our Winter Workshop schedule in 2024!  We’ll be back at two of our normal venues  – Beaver Creek Reserve and Sandhill Outdoor Skills Center, and a new third location in Rhinelander, WI.    The one-day clinic lectures are condensed a bit – pricing varies based on site accommodations.  Minimum age for attendees is 14, under 18 must be accompanied by parent or legal guardian.  Due to the close proximity required for our events,  help us stay healthy – request a refund and stay home if you’re feeling ill or have been exposed to COVID.

Winter Wolf Ecology Clinic
Saturday,
9:00 AM ~ 4:30 PM
Join retired DNR Wolf Biologist Dick Thiel and the TWIN crew for a Wisconsin Wolf Ecology and Management Clinic.  Morning lectures will cover basic wolf management principles, human value systems, and wolves’ natural history and ecology – all topics that are timely and important, given the ongoing controversies surrounding this iconic animal, and its status as a keystone predator.
After lunch, you’ll head to the field to examine wolf tracks and scent posts and to get a close-up look at wolves’ mastery of the wintery landscape, as you learn more about wolves’ ecological role.  You’ll likely encounter tracks and sign of other winter wildlife as well.
Bring a bag lunch and beverage and appropriate clothing for several hours outdoors.
