Horse Project Meetings - Riding Evaluations

Dear 4-H Horse Families,

As we get ready to begin the 4-H horse project year, we want to make sure everyone is aware of an important requirement in our Horse Project Rulebook.

Before the first horse show, each 4-H member will need to have a riding evaluation completed by their Horse Project Leader. These evaluations help determine the appropriate riding division for each member and will be completed during some of the first horse project meetings.

Please take a few minutes to review the following resources before your first riding meetings:

                                                     Intermediate and Advance Evaluation Form

Our riding divisions are:

  • Beginner

  • Intermediate

  • Junior

  • Senior Advanced

The evaluation applies to the riding divisions in Western, English, and Gymkhana. Please be prepared to talk with your Horse Project Leader about where you feel your child should be placed in each discipline. Your leader will work with you and your 4-H member to determine the appropriate level based on the rider's current skills and experience.

Please review the evaluation form and riding-level guidance before your first few horse project meetings. Leaders will be completing these evaluations during those early meetings, so coming prepared will help make the process go smoothly.

The goal of the evaluation is to make sure each rider is placed in a division that is appropriate for their current ability and provides a safe and positive experience at our horse shows.

Thank you for taking the time to review this information and for helping us get the horse project year off to a great start! If there are any questions please reach out to us via email at pinalcounty4hhorse@gmail.com. 

Sincerely,

Pinal County 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.
