County Horse Rulebook Review & Suggested Changes

Dear 4-H Horse Families,

The Horse Advisory Committee (HAC) is currently accepting suggestions, edits, and proposed changes to the county horse rulebook. We encourage all families to take the time to carefully review the current rulebook and provide any feedback or recommendations you may have. Here is a link to the current county rulebook. Here is a link to the State Rulebook just for reference since we cannot change these rules.

Please keep in mind that many of our county rules align directly with the State 4-H Horse Rulebook, and those rules cannot be changed at the county level. However, there are several county-specific rules and procedures that may be reviewed and updated as needed.

We ask that all suggested changes be submitted to the HAC by July 15th. After that date, all submitted recommendations will be compiled into a formal document to be reviewed, discussed, and voted upon at the annual HAC meeting on August 15th by the newly elected Horse Advisory Board Committee. You may email your suggestions to pinalcounty4hhorse@gmail.com. 

Thank you for taking an active role in helping us continue to improve and strengthen our county horse program. We appreciate your support and involvement.

Best regards,

Pinal County 4-H Horse Advisory Committee

Community Service !

This was shared with us via Facebook from Phil Fedor 

 Attention all 4Hers

If you haven't heard, this week is rodeo week in Queen Creek.

The Friends of Horseshoe Park are expecting a large turnout of 4-H volunteers to help at Roots N' Boots Queen Creek in return for the funds they provided to the Town of Queen Creek on behalf of the Queen Creek 4-H club last year.

I understand that this is a Queen Creek event, but all 4-Hers are encouraged to volunteer, no matter where they reside.

If you are in need of community service hours, and you have not previously registered as a volunteer this past winter, volunteers need to check in daily at the rodeo administration trailer located behind the grandstands of the SE arena. See the red balloon in the attached image.

Let's show all the visitors to the town's signature event that 4-H is strong and vibrant in Queen Creek.
