4-H Horse Programs

The events for this year will include written test, showmanship, horsemanship, reining, poles, barrels, trail, quad, flag race, etc.

 

We will not be enrolling members at the shows. If they are not enrolled at the office before the first show they participate in, they will not be allowed to show. We also want to mention that after June 1, only members and leaders who have signed up for this year will stay on the current horse mailing/texting list. All members should be enrolled in the different clubs with fees paid before attending any club practices.

 

The entry fee for each of the shows will be $10-15. To register, choose the summer show event and pay the $10-15 fee online on Zsuite or at the office. The same also applies for the county fair show. At the County Fair Show, tack and other prizes will be awarded to the top three winners of three selected events. At the county fair show, buckles, tack, and other supplies will be awarded to the top three winners in the three selected events. During the end of year banquet prizes will be awarded to everyone.

 

As always Juab is able to compete in County Contests. This means that our 4-H horse youth may participate in any of the horse-related County/State Contests and receive points. Horse contests include demonstrations, horse public speaking, horse judging, horse bowl and hippology. To participate in hippology, a four-member team is needed. To participate in horse bowl and horse judging, a 3–4-member team is needed. These teams must consist of members in the same age division, 4-H youth can participate in as many of these contests as they would like. Seniors have the opportunity to qualify for and attend State Contests in July. These contests are great ways to expand the 4-H member’s knowledge of horses, which will make them better riders and owners. If your child is interested in participating, please have them contact the office so we can help put teams together and schedule practices.

There will be open practice each Thursday night at the fairground’s south arena from 6-8 p.m. when there is not a major event scheduled or said otherwise in group communication.
