Prepping for the Competition

Our first practice is Monday, January 3rd, 2022. Our Jones County 4-H youth prepped for the Horse Bowl by attending 5 weeks of practices on Mondays and Thursdays either in-person or virtually with our 4-H Agent, Samantha Bennett, and Livestock Agent, Katie Carter. Youth were able to sharpen their horse knowledge and make new friends along the way!
