PA State Horse Show Meeting Information

Are you ready for the start of the PA State 4-H Horse Show? Many Clinton County 4-H members have qualified at the District V Horse Show and the Regional Production Show and will be attending the state show. As soon as the official document is received a confirmation notice will be posted and sent to all qualifiers.

In the meantime, a meeting has been set for Sept 13 at 7 pm in the Learning Center. It is imperative that all qualifiers attend and the 4-H Horse Program welcomes all 4-H members to become involved in the planning of the State Horse Show. We realize that school activities will be in full swing, so if you know that you qualified please contact Helene McKernan at 570-726-0022 or by email hbm10@psu.edu and let her know if you cannot attend the meeting. At this meeting plans will be formed for stall decorations, etc.

When the official notice of qualifiers is received the Clinton County Extension Office will distribute information to members including instructions on payment and reservation of stall fees. Members will learn at the Sept 13 meeting, a method in which they will be able to have ½ of their stall fee paid for by the Horse Program Development Committee. All state qualifiers will need to pay all stall fees prior to the state horse show. The HPDC will reimburse ½ of the stall fees to qualifiers who meet the requirements.

If you have any questions call Helene or email her your concerns.
