Event Details: The primary objective of the Hippology Contest is to provide, in a friendly but competitive setting, an opportunity for youth enrolled in a 4-H horse project to demonstrate the breadth of their knowledge and understanding of equine science and husbandry, and the application of this knowledge and skill. JUNIOR TEAMS WILL BE REQUIRED TO COMPLETE A TEAM PROBLEM AND WILL RECEIVE A SCORE THAT WILL BE INCLUDED IN THEIR TOTAL TEAM SCORE. The Hippology contest will be held in conjunction with the State 4-H Horse Bowl Contest.
