Short-Term Objective #1
• In December 2008, the horse specialist, the 4-H Agriculture & Natural Resources specialist, the Bernalillo County 4-H Agriculture agent, and members of the NMSU Intercollegiate Horse Judging Team conducted a Youth Horse Judging Clinic at the Bernalillo County 4-H Center. Over 100 youth and 13 adults attended the clinic. The evaluation survey asked respondents to rate the overall program on a scale of 1 to 5 with one being “excellent” and 5 being “poor”. Of the 49 surveys returned from youth, 29 rated it “excellent”, 18 rated it “good”, and 2 rated it “fair”. Due to an error in the survey tool, we were unable to collect data on the level of knowledge gained by participants.

• In July 2009, 46 senior 4-H members competed in the NM State 4-H Horse Judging Contest where they implemented all of the knowledge and skills that they had gained in the areas of horse conformation and performance evaluation, public speaking, and decision making.

• In July 2009, 17 senior 4-H members competed in the NM State 4-H Horse Bowl Contest where they used their knowledge gained in the areas of horse science and husbandry to answer competition questions.

• In July 2009, 20 senior 4-H members competed in the NM State 4-H Hippology Contest where they were evaluated on their ability to identify horse related equipment and tack, knowledge of horse science and husbandry, and horse selection criteria.
