Holiday Classic Open Horse Show - we need your help!
The annual Holiday Classic Open
Horse Show will be held in Raleigh on December 6-7, 2013. This horse show
is a fundraiser for our NC District 4-H Horse program as well as the NCSU
Western Equestrian Riding Club. Since 2009 when we started this show, our
district has been able to contribute over $11,000 to 4-Hers attending camps,
and provide travel scholarships to 4-Hers representing the NC 4-H Horse Program
at the Southern Regional Horse Championship and at the National 4-H Horse
Roundup for several educational contests. We also have been able to continue
our program of providing two
annual college scholarships of $500.00 each. We annually contribute monies towards sponsorships to many N.C. State 4-H Horse Program educational contests. Also, with the money that is raised, the North Central District is able to keep the District show entry fees among the lowest in the state!!

So now that you see all the impacts that this horse show has
on our district program, please help us! There are several ways you can
help - sell sponsorships, secure vendors, volunteer at show, show your horse,
help advertise. Sponsorships are very reasonable - starting out at $10
for a class sponsor. Think how much we would have if everyone went out
and got at least a $10 show sponsor.
If you know of a possible major show sponsor, but do not
feel comfortable with asking, just pass along their info and we'll do the
calling for you!
We also have an incentive to
sell sponsorships - whoever sells the most sponsorships will receive a free
stall for the Holiday Classic show.
You can find all the information
on sponsorships, class lists, etc on the Holiday Classic website: http://holidayclassicopenhorseshow.webs.com/
If you have any questions at
all please contact District 4-H Horse Council President, Richard Isley at
336-908-3302.
Thanks so much for your support in making this
horse show a success!Thursday, September 26, 2013
