What is the NC 4-H Horse Program Recreational Riding Rewards Program?
- The Recreational Riding Rewards Program is an annual submission of recreational riding hours logged with an equine partner to earn awards and recognition at the state level.
- Hours logged follow the rider and may be completed on different horses, either riding or driving. Hours logged must be done on trails, endurance riders, or other organized group rides outside of an arena (fox hunts, beach rides, hunter paces, competitive trail rides, etc.). Arena riding, lesson hours, and horse show hours are not eligible for these awards.
- Hours logged are cumulative from year to year and will be added over time to achieve the levels of recognition.
What are the award milestones?
- Patches
- 25 hours (bronze)
- 50 hours (silver)
- 100 hours (gold)
