Western Horsemanship Clinic

The Western Equestrian Club at NCSU, that we will be hosting an IHSA (Intercollegiate Horse Show Association) based Western Horsemanship clinic at the team barn. The clinic will be November 9th; we have opportunities for some to ride, as well as unlimited auditing spaces available. I have attached the information flyer, as well as the form that needs to be mailed in for those that would like to participate, either as a rider or an auditor. The goal of our clinic is to further the kids knowledge of western horsemanship, as well as let them know of some of the opportunities available to them for riding in college. The clinic is not only for those of a western background, anyone of any discipline is invited to come. I would greatly appreciate if you could share this with the clubs in your area. Please let me know if you have any questions. If anyone else has any questions, they are welcome to reach me at (336) 558-7335 or tcalbano@ncsu.edu

Forms will be posted soon.

General Hugh Shelton Leadership Scholarship

The General Hugh Shelton Leadership Center is pleased to offer for the 10th year a major four-year college scholarship. Each year an incredible high school student will win this national scholarship. Many students have been selected from NC and one from as far away as Russia (actually a US student completing her high school experience overseas).Next year’s winner could be from your school!!

The mission of this initiative, housed at NC State University, is to “inspire, educate, and develop values-based leaders who are committed to personal integrity, professional ethics, and selfless service”.

We conduct scholarship programs, executive education trainings, leadership forums, and youth outreach programs.

As a part of the scholarship program we have endowed the General Hugh Shelton National Leadership Scholarship. Essentially, we are trying to identify and award America’s most outstanding high school student leader. The type of student leaders you are producing are exactly the ones who may be qualified and interested in pursuing this scholarship, valued at $10,000 per year (and renewable), plus an annual $2,000 stipend for external leadership experiences such as study abroad.

Please share this opportunity broadly.

The following website will provide a description of the scholarship, the criteria and theapplication, which is due by November 1.
