Florida 4-H Virtual Horse Club
Welcome & Giddy Up!
Welcome to our virtual state horse club!
Our goal is to provide a bonus virtual club for all those interested in expanding their equine knowledge. Through this club’s monthly guest speakers, games, fun activities, and new friendships we hope that your horse excitement and knowledge will grow both in your local and our state horse programs. If you are planning on showing at Area or State, you need to remain active in your county and have your local 4-H agent sign off on paperwork.
We strongly encourage youth who are already active in their county to continue to be active at the local level.
Meetings are currently on "stall rest" as we restructure for the new 4-H year.
We will provide expert guest speakers, help with goal attainment, and share in fun activities for our members at each meeting.
Common Q&A:
Do you need a horse or horse experience to be a part of the club?
No, neither are needed or required to be a part of the club. The subject matter will range and cover all things horses that should be interesting to those new to horses and our experienced horseman.
