The Pennsylvania 4-H Horsemanship Skills Program encourages members to develop and refine their equine abilities through four progressive levels, with safety as the top priority.

Level 1 – Intended for basic equine safety. Many counties require completion before participating in county shows.

Level 2 – Members who master all skills and are at least 14 years old are eligible to apply for Team Horse Power (THP).

Level 3 – Members who complete all required riding or driving skills are recognized at the district level.

Level 4 – Members who master all skills (riding or driving) demonstrate exceptional horsemanship and are honored at the State 4-H Horse Show with a custom belt buckle from the Pennsylvania 4-H Program.

The deadline is fast approaching!

Are you a current member in the 4-H program?

At least 15 years old, and in at least your third year of membership in the 4-H horse program?

This award is to recognize an outstanding 4-H member active in the 4-H horse/horse science program. Emphasis is on the member and his/her participation in the horse program, plus his/her leadership and impact on club, county, and community in general.
The award was named to honor a longtime volunteer, Dr. Scott McAllister of Centre Hall, PA who has spent a lifetime giving to the horse programs in Pennsylvania. He values the 4-H program as a place for youth to develop communication, leadership and horse skills.
