Events

Members will meet regularly to share their passion for horses while studying equine science. They will create and keep their own study book to keep and use in preparation for participation in Horse Bowl and Hippology. Participation in the competitions is not required, but they will be the motivational force behind the course material. In this meeting 4-H'ers will learn about the things to keep in mind when building a stable: topography, types of stabling, hay storage, handling manure, fencing, fire safety, and more. Additionally, we will cover the basics of travel with horses such as required paperwork, types of trailers, and safety.
