Horse and pony enrollment set

By RONALD W. HOYT Extension Agent, 4-H and Youth Kosciusko County young people, ages nine to 19, are learning that caring for a horse is more than just a hobby in the 4-H Horse and Pony program. Approximately 100 4-Her’s each year are involved in this exciting project. The 4-Her’s spend on the average three to four hours a day during the summer and one to two hours each day during the school year caring for their horses. Much of this time is spent working directly with the horses. Feeding, bedding, health care, equipment care, riding and training are all part of 4-H project’s informal “learn-by-doing” approach to education. Youth who participate in the 4-H Horse and Pony project also retain their love of animals and riding skills for life. Pleasure riding on weekends or vacations is just one of the many benefits of early training. The Kosciusko County 4-H Horse and Pony Club has set its meeting and activity schedule for 1986 (* horses brought to this meeting): January 7— 7 p.m., Enrollment and judging team demonstrations February 4 —7 p.m., Enrollment, style and tack show March 4 —7 p.m., Vet talk April 1 — 7 p.m., Getting ready for a horse show May 3 — 10 a.m..
