May 14th is a speed clinic given by Danicka, waiting to hear back on the time & place of this one. I’ll let you know as soon as I do!

Just so everyone knows & understands, Horses are not mandatory or necessary to bring to these clinics. If it’s easier to make it to the clinic without your horses, that’s fine.

You can always learn w/o a horse & maybe even more because if you are standing next to the person teaching you get to see what that person sees & then you can take that knowledge home & apply it to yourself or your group.

I have my girls bring theirs because they and their horses need all the riding time they can get!

Thanks again! Leah


A great big THANK YOU should go out to the Howard’s for their support (presenting the clinic on May 7th) of our 4H youth! I encourage you all to have your kids make a thank you card for them & I’ll be sure to get it to them!

Next clinic is on speed given by Danicka Marshall. It will be at the Parowan, Iron Co. Fairgrounds Tuesday May 15th, starting at 5:30. Please do all you can to be there early so we don’t waste her time waiting on us. Thank you!

Effie mentioned that she will be getting us a demonstration clinic time & date TBA.

Joann mentioned having a grooming clinic, that is TBA as well in the future. 

Service projects are needed as well, so get with me on those please. 

Thank you for all you do, your time & efforts with your clubs is appreciated! You are making a difference in a child’s life!

From Utah 4-H Horse - May 4, 2012

We are working on revitalizing the State English Horse Program. If any of you have volunteer leaders interested in helping with the program and show would you please let me know? Also, if any of them would just like some input or have suggestions please have them contact me. We have a very excited core group starting to work on the program and would love to have all the help and involvement we can get. Thanks for all you do.
