The Anderson County 4H Horse Project

The Anderson County 4H Horse Project is proud to have its headquarters in the East Tennessee Riding Club. The club graciously lets us use their facilities, including their clubroom, ring, and barn on Hands On days.

About the 4H

The Anderson County 4H Project meets during the school year. We meet on the first Thursday of every month, and every other Saturday for Hands On. Thursdays are our monthly meetings where we discuss what we plan to do in the future and learn more about horses. On Hands On days we ride and work with the horses. We learn everything from Showmanship and Halter to Western, English, Saddle Seat, and many other types of riding.

The 4H is divided in to 3 main categories: Senior High (grades 9-12), Junior High (grades 6-8), and Junior (grades 4-5) Divisions. These coincide with the divisions in the Horse Bowl, Horse Judging, and other competitions we enter. The Senior High 4Hers often instruct the younger 4Hers, and help the leaders.

OUR SERVICE PROJECT

The Anderson County 4H's Service Project was to raise $1000 for the Anderson Sling, a large animal rescue sling. The Sling has been purchased, and the AC4HHP's donation was the second largest donation given!!! :) Now we need a new service project! We are currently thinking about helping the Vets without borders group, which goes to other countries to take care of animals.
