During the Saturday evening program of the 2021 NC 4-H State Horse Show, the second annual Alumni Showmanship class was held. Fifteen NC 4-H Horse Program Alumni battled it out to win three prizes: Class Champion, Sponsorship Challenge Winner, and Most Fly Alumni. $2536 was raised for the NC 4-H Horse Program Emergency Fund.  This fund provides financial assistance to deserving NC 4-H'ers so they can participate in educational events and shows.

Rockingham County 4-H alumnae Laura Sheets, and Fort Knox were the overall class winners. Reserve class champion honors went to former Wake county Jammin' Hooves leader Bill Crouse.  Mr. Bill clogged his pattern to Rocky Top! Nick Benzick, also from Wake County, made a generous donation and was the sponsorship challenge winner. Alaina Cross anonymously performed her pattern in a very furry and large pig costume and earned the title of Most Fly Alumni.

Thank you to all that participated and we cannot wait to see what everyone brings to the table in 2022!
