State 4H Equine Field Day

Jessie, Jordan and Savannah pictured here with Christine from Chowchilla 4H, at the state 4H Equine Education Field Day, held at the UC Davis campus.

The girls got to watch a hitching demonstration, with beautiful black percheron draft horses, and ride in the wagon. Then they got a tour of the 100 year old horse barns on campus, and a demonstration on horse behavior and artificial insemination techniques. After that they went in and explored the knowledge they must obtain in order to compete at horse bowl and other equine educational contests. I even learned a thing or two! It was an educational and fun day for everyone involved...... Thank you, Kristi for driving us up there! Photo credit:Tom Bohna
