| Impact Report | Horse Shows The agent organized the annual Spring Horse Show in Springer at the Colfax County Fair Grounds, which allowed ten participants from Rio Arriba and Colfax County to gain horsemanship and equitation skills through a fun play day of horse related competition. The agent was in charge of contacting a judge, ordering the ribbons, getting donations for the high point buckets, and being the score keeper for the event. Life Skills gained were self-esteem, personal safety, planning and organizing, goal setting, and managing feelings. The agent also assisted the 4-H agent and the Treasurer of the Colfax County Fair Association to organize and coordinate the Colfax County Fair Horse Show which had participants from Colfax, Mora, and Rio Arriba counties. There were a total of 26 contestants. The agent was responsible for contacting a judge, ordering ribbons, preparing the arena, and was the official timer for the event. There were 12 classes where youth received feedback and instruction on horsemanship skills based on improvement from the day’s events. |
