Think you know horses? Put your knowledge to the test!

Join the Loudon County 4-H Horse Bowl & Hippology Team! This is a great opportunity for 4-H’ers to expand their knowledge of horses, the equine industry, and related topics while building teamwork and competition skills.

Practice dates and times will be determined based on participant availability and are TBD.

Sign Up Here:

Note - 4-H’ers do NOT need to own a horse to participate! This opportunity is open to all interested 4-H’ers who want to learn more about the horse industry and develop their knowledge and skills.

Volunteers Needed!
We are also looking for individuals who are willing to share their equine knowledge and experience by volunteering to coach our Horse Bowl and/or Hippology teams. You don’t have to be a professional—if you have a passion for horses and enjoy working with youth, we would love to hear from you!

Questions or interested in volunteering?
Contact Kennedy Ozburn or the Loudon County Extension Office for more information!

What a great STEM Day!

We had 9 awesome 4-H’ers join us for a fun-filled morning of hands-on STEM activities! Our 4-H’ers had the opportunity to explore, experiment, ask questions, and learn through engaging activities with the crowd favorite being building their very own roller coaster prototypes!

We love seeing our 4-H’ers get excited about science, technology, engineering, and math while learning through hands-on experiences!

If your 4-H’er is interested in STEM activities, reach out to one of your Loudon County 4-H Agents, Kennedy Ozburn ([email protected]) or Jarrett Tubbs ([email protected]) for upcoming opportunities!
