Are any of you interested in helping lead and design a clinic that will teach other kids in 4H all about the costs and issues associated with buying and owning a horse?
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The “Horse Game” (as we are calling it until we find a more suitable and attractive title) has been suggested by many enthusiastic 4-H club members and leaders. Our goal is to build upon a model used in the past to provide our 4-H youth members with a fun and interactive game (designed by YOU!) that will teach others extremely important and realistic information they can use when it comes to purchasing their own horse. The style for the game is inspired by the game of “Life” and will be set up in a similar fashion where 4-Her’s will draw a occupation card, receive a salary, and be thrown into the “reality” of horse ownership. You do not have to be involved in a 4-H Horse club to become part of this work team.
We could use all of the creative ideas and information that all of you have to offer so please get involved in this work team!
In the on-line registration form found here:
https://reg.cce.cornell.edu/HorseGameWorkTeam_209
I have asked anyone that chooses to sign up to pick from a drop down list of available dates to host our first meeting. All meetings will begin at 9AM and the end time will be determined by the team members.
If none of the available dates work for you and your family but you are still interested in becoming involved in this project please sign up anyway and choose “none of these dates work” so I know that you are interested in this opportunity and can include you on any emails I send out.
I will choose the date which is most suitable for the majority of people who sign up and will send a follow up email for further details once the registration is closed. The registration deadline is Wednesday, February 5th, 2013 so I can plan to host our first meeting on the 8th if this works for everyone. If you miss this deadline and still want to be part of this work team please email or call me so I can include you.
If you have any questions please contact Chelsea Baxter at clb299@cornell.edu or (518) 561-7450 - I will be more than happy to answer any questions!
