Congratulations to one of our own! - a PA 4-H volunteer of the month for November goes to Pete Nebzydoski, leader of the Wild Cats in Bethlehem. Congratulations Pete and thank you for all you do! 🍀

It's time for our Pennsylvania 4-H Volunteer Spotlight! Each month, Pennsylvania 4-H highlights volunteers who are doing great work around the state.

Today, we are celebrating Peter Nebzydoski of Northampton County!

Peter has been a club leader in Northampton County for four years. His nominator says, "In that short amount of time he has become an integral part of the program."

He started a new community club in the Bethlehem area, serves as a member of the volunteer Program Development Committee, and is a valuable volunteer at camp. He was also a 4-H member in Wayne County himself, showing pigs. His nominator adds, "Peter is a wealth of knowledge and energy, bringing new ideas, skills and collaborative effort, and promotes 4-H in everything he does. Thank you Peter!"

State horse show patterns are posted!!

2025 State 4-H Horse Show Patterns have been posted!

These are the patterns, tests and courses that will be released prior to the show. Additionally, all patterns, tests and courses will be distributed to exhibitors during the check in process at the show.

📢💥 The judge has elected to execute testing for the Hunt Seat Equitation on the Flat classes (8-11, 12-14 and 15-18) as part of the rail work. There is no written tests being released for those classes.

⚠️There is certainly a possibility for errors {since humans did make the patterns} so know that ALL FINAL POSTED PATTERNS, TESTS and COURSES should be reviewed at the horse show as well.
