Horse Club
Henry County 4-H Horse Club is open to all youth in public, private, and home school grades 3rd-12th. Our club offers plenty of hands on experiences with horses as well as exciting opportunities to participate in state events which include:
- Horse Quiz Bowl
- Hippology
- Horse Judging
- State 4-H Horse Show
- State Horse Project
The 4-H Horse Program is one of the most exciting and enjoyable facets of Georgia 4-H, a youth development program offered by the University of Georgia College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences. Ownership of a horse is NOT required to be in this club.
Our goal for Horse Club is to create a positive and friendly community for 4-H'ers to come together to share in their passion for horses! Our club will have SOME riding experience but our main focus is to learn more about a variety of different equine related topics through a series of fun and educational activities. These topics include but are not limited to:
- Safety
- Anatomy/Conformation
- Tack
- Breeds
- Health
- Performance
Club fee: $50.00
Meeting Times: 6:30-8:30 p.m. @ the Henry County Extension Office
