Horse Judging
All 4-H members are encouraged to learn how to evaluate horses. Judging knowledge provides the foundation for training, showing, buying, selling, and producing quality horses. This knowledge establishes the basis for the development of qualified horse show judges. Judging promotes decision-making, justification of thoughts, self-confidence, and public speaking.
Horse Quiz Bowl
The quiz bowl contests provide an opportunity for youth enrolled in 4-H projects to demonstrate their knowledge in a competitive setting where attitudes of friendliness, cooperation, and fairness prevail. Horse Bowl challenges 4-H’ers to learn about breeds, anatomy, nutrition, diseases, tack, and much more!
Hippology
The Hippology contest provides youth with the opportunity to blend the knowledge and skills acquired in horse judging, horse bowl, demonstrations, public speaking, showing and practical horse experience into one activity. It encourages 4-H members to expand their knowledge and comprehension of equine science, comprehensive knowledge of the horse industry, and management practices. Hippology is only open for the Senior Age Division. More information on the state competition can be found on the State Roundup site and the rules can be found by clicking here.
Our practice times are based directly on when team members are available. Since we are currently a small group, we want to make sure everyone can participate. We plan to meet twice a month, once virtually and once in-person, somewhere that is convenient for everyone.
Please reach out to Roan (roanelius@gmail.com) and Janice (rotra4u@gmail.com) Nash for more details!
