Our Club was started
in 2006 and continues to grow.
4H
Pledge
My Head to clearer thinking
My Heart to greater loyalty
My Hands to larger service
My Health to better living
For my club, my
community and my country.
4H motto is “Learn to do by
Doing”
4H is available to
youth ages 10 (as of January 1st) to 21 years old.
Objective: To educate the
members and provide “hands on”
experience on how to completely care for a miniature horse, if they
should
desire to own one in the future.
Our club has two sessions per year, one in the spring
related to horse care and one during the summer which prepares the
members to exhibit
horses at the local Fall Fairs and participate in our local Achievement
Day held
at Caledonia Fair.
Members receive a credit for each session completed. Credits
accumulate towards 4H awards and
members are eligible for post secondary scholarships.
Topics: Safety
and horse handling, Anatomy, First Aid, Parasites and Management,
Diseases and
Vaccinations, Feeding and Nutrition, Hoof Care, Show Grooming and
Showmanship. Members get “hands on”
experience at each meeting.
Members are given the opportunity to show in the Colour
Classes, Youth Showmanship, Costume, and will be participating in
Halter
Obstacle and Youth Driving in the future.
We also plan to participate in local parades and other community events
as our club grows.
But most of all……………We
Have FUN.
Learning how to bath a
horse.
Learning how to body clip a
horse.
