Here is the official invite for our 1st horse show of the 2016-17 year! There are a few changes to registration & enrollment, so please read closely.
To continue our success, we want to remind all families that 4-H is run by all families and your help is required at every show.
Pinal County 4-H Horse Show #1 2016-2017
When: Saturday February 11, 2017
Arena: West / Roping Arena
Sat Schedule: Gymkhana 9 AM, NO Roping, Western, English (if any)
Registration: 8am
Show Start: 9am Morning Meeting, followed by gymkhana events (barrels, poles and goats)
****Reminder we are assessing skill divisions during barrels so this show will run a little slower in the morning!!
Senior Advanced go first, followed by Junior Advanced, Intermediates and finally beginners. That way the beginners can watch and learn from the more experienced kiddos. We will be having separate roping events so NO roping will be held at this show.
IMPORTANT: All annual enrollments MUST be completed online. No annual enrollment packets will be accepted onsite at the show. If you are NOT enrolled via the website by 2/6 your horse show registration will NOT be accepted.
REMINDER: Mandatory helmet policy for all 4-H members anytime while on the back of a horse on the property. Per Pinal County, this policy is effective immediately. These must be approved horse helmets, bicycle helmets are not allowed.
