14^th Annual, 2010 California 4-H Horse Classic

Welcome to the 14th Annual California 4-H Horse Classic – Educational Contests & Champion Horse Show! There will be again two statewide events dedicated to over 4,500 4-H horse project members statewide. We invite everyone to come join us in sharing your passion for horses. As you know, in 2008, this statewide event has taken a new look with the educational contests being held separate from the horse show. The advisory committee would like to see more participation in the educational contests and hopefully being a stand alone event will enable 4-Hers to carpool and prepare for the event without the conflict of a horse show.  Last year, participation increased another 50% from 2008! The championship horse show provides the opportunity for 4-H riders to compete at a level beyond local, county or regional events. The central California location is addressing the request for a temperate climate.  Both events will continue to establish new friendships with fellow 4-H members and leaders and build networks between counties with a common interest to strengthen equine education in 4-H.

Goals of the Horse Show:

• Establish new friendships with fellow 4-H members and leaders.
  
• Encourage networking between counties to build leadership with a common interest.
  
• Provide opportunities for youth statewide to share their passion for horses.
  
• Participate in social and educational programs by being a participant, not a spectator
• Experience and develop greater personal growth.
  
• Continue to develop leadership and citizenship skills.
  
• Share personal experiences with others through things that have been meaningful to your growth and development.
  
• Promote good sportsmanship
  
• Provide a unique opportunity for horse project members to compete on a different level beyond the county, district or regional basis.
