NEW INFORMATION
Several new families have asked about the various classes at horse shows and what are the judges using to evaluate riders. All of our judges at the RI district and state 4-H horse shows are 4-H carded judges. These shows all follow the rules and guidelines established by the New England 4-H Horse Committee. I have provided a link so that 4-H leaders, members and parents can review the current rules and guidelines.
