Congratulations to all the 4-H /FFA exhibitors at this years show. It was a beautiful day for a horse show and I am so proud of each and every one of you who have came to clinics and put in the hard work to accomplish all that you have this year! Thank you to all the parents for hauling them too and from and giving them the opportunity to learn through 4-H!

Thank you to the horse committee for the hours of commitment to helping these kids learn throughout the summer. I appreciate it so much!

I am truly blessed to have such a fun and great group of kids that I get to help and teach all about horses! ❤️

It's FAIR WEEK!
Some things to remember for Thursdays Horse Show:
✔️check in starts at 7:00 am- at check in please bring a clean unsaddled horse. We will be checking classes and getting back numbers at this time.

--YOU WILL NEED TO HAND IN ENTRY FORMS AND CODE OF CONDUCT SHEETS! EACH SPECIES HAS THEIR OWN CODE OF CONDUCT, SO EVEN IF YOU TURNED IT IN FOR ANOTHER SPECIES YOU WILL NEED TO TURN IT IN FOR HORSES TO US AT CHECK IN!--

At 7:50 am we will be doing the national anthem, where all 4H and FFA members will be entering the arena with show attire to present the flag.
NO RIDING UNTIL AFTER YOU HAVE CHECKED IN
8 am is promptly show time.

Remember to bring hay bags, buckets for water, clean clothes for showing, and a 4H or FFA Tshirt to be wearing for games. Remember NO TANK TOPS. It will be hot so prepare with lots of water!

WE ASK THAT EVERYONE TRY TO PARK NORTH OF THE ARENA UNDER/AROUND THE TREES, IT IS CLEANED UP FOR MORE PARKING BUT WE WILL STILL NEED TO PARK FAIRLY CLOSE TOGETHER.
