Horse Club

Horse Club is open to Henry County Youth that are currently enrolled in 3rd-12th grade. Our club offers plenty of hands on experiences with horses as well as some exciting opportunities to participate in some exciting state events which includes:

  • Horse Quiz Bowl
  • Hippology
  • Horse Judging
  • State 4-H Horse Show

 The 4-H Horse Program is one of the most exciting and enjoyable facets of Georgia 4-H, a youth development program offered by the University of Georgia College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences. Ownership of a horse is NOT required to be in this club.

Our goal for Horse Club is to create a positive and friendly community for 4-H'ers to come together to share in their passion for horses! Our club will have SOME riding experience but our main focus is to learn more about a variety of different equine related topics through a series of fun and educational activities. These topics include but are not limited to:

  • Safety
  • Anatomy/Conformation
  • Tack
  • Breeds
  • Health

Club fee: $25.00

Meeting Times: 6:30-8:00 p.m. @ the Henry County Extension Office

  • build a sense of belonging by giving 4-H’ers the opportunity to be a part of something important and relevant
  • encourage independence in every 4-H’er by teaching them to be responsible and knowledgeable horsemen and horsewomen
