4-H Horse Program


The Wake County 4-H Horse Program exists to allow youth ages 5-19 to develop life skills through work with horses. In addition to showmanship, youth learn about horse husbandry, nutrition, veterinary science and leadership through the horse program.

Wake County 4-H has an active Adult Horse Council and Youth Horse Council.  4-H horse program youth and adults are always welcome at these meetings. For information on either council, or for additional information, please contact Martha Smith at 919-250-1092 or e-mail martha.smith@wakegov.com.


Horse Council Meetings

Youth and Adult Horse Council meets the second Monday of each month at 7 p.m. at the Wake County Extension Office (4001-E Carya Dr. Raleigh, NC 27610). The Horse Council does not meet in July.
