Greetings 4-H Families, 

The Horse Advisory Committee, who is responsible for organizing county horse shows will be meeting August 22, 2020 at 10 am in the Cooperative Extension Office, 820 E. Cottonwood Ln, Bldg. C.  At this meeting, new committee members will be chosen, horse show dates will be set, and rules for the 2020-2021 year will be voted on. We would like to invite you to attend if you are a certified leader or in process of certification and would like to join the committee! We also are looking for a minimum of 2 youth representatives.

Sponsorship reminder and year end award qualifications

Hello 4-H Horse Families,

This is just a reminder that horse members are required to attend 3 out of 4 shows in order to qualify for year end high point and reserve high point awards.

A family member or exhibitor must volunteer at every show (discipline) the member is participating in.

Also sponsorship of $150 must be provided for the exhibitor to qualify for year end awards. You can find the sponsorship packet on our blog.

With only two shows being left and if your exhibitor is leading with points to qualify for year end awards you will want to be thinking about turning in sponsorship funds.

The horse advisory committee will email you your exhibitors points so you know where you are at.

If you have questions about sponsorship or year end awards please let us know.

Thank you.
