Today at our Bibber Creek Spurs 4-H meeting, we had an extra special guest that stole the show—a DWARF MINIATURE PONY! This adorable little mare immediately captured everyone’s hearts with her tiny frame and sweet personality. We got to feed her some hay and learned about her care, including an up-close look at its unique, specially-made shoes designed just for ponies like it. It was such a treat to have this little bundle of joy with us, bringing smiles and excitement to everyone in the room.
After the excitement of our guest speaker, we shifted gears to discuss the usual club business, including updates, upcoming show presentations, and other organizational matters. The meeting continued with two fantastic presentations from our very own club members. One member gave an educational talk about Equine Protozoal Myeloencephalitis (EPM), sharing insights into this serious condition that affects horses and how to manage it. The other presentation focused on tips and guidance for how to buy a horse, covering everything from evaluating temperament to understanding the financial commitment. Both were incredibly informative and sparked great discussions among the group.
It’s a perfect reminder that 4-H is not just about riding horses—it’s also about building life skills like public speaking, learning about democracy and leadership, understanding equine management, mastering horse judging, and so much more. Our meetings are always a blend of fun, education, and growth, and this one was no exception. We’re proud to see our members stepping up, learning, and sharing their knowledge. Here’s to another memorable 4-H meeting!
