March 2017 All life demands struggle. Those who have everything given to them become lazy, selfish, and insensitive to the real values of life.

State 4-H Congress/State 4-H Horse Championship Workshops & Training Opportunities In the next couple of months, several workshops and training sessions for upcoming 4-H horse events and contests will be scheduled. Workshops/training sessions will likely be held in late March through May. Even though we do not have a major horse show until June and July, there are still plenty of items to keep us busy. 2 Recruiting New Members Spend some time promoting the 4-H animal and dairy science projects. This would be an excellent time to make personal contacts with potential project members, doing a news release or a radio program, having a county meeting, organizing livestock clubs, or whatever works for you. Remember that you can order my livestock brochure and check-out my livestock display with Kathy Nash to promote livestock and horse projects. 4-H Club Congress Contests 4-H Club Congress Contests will be here soon (May 31-June 2). Now is the time to be lining up participation and planning county contests. Contests in the 4-H animal and dairy sciences area are Visual Presentations for seniors (four divisions included [1] beef; [2] sheep, swine, market goats; [3] dairy animals; [4] dairy products.) Other contests available are meats judging/identification contest, livestock bowl, and dairy bowl for senior members and dairy products judging. Plus there is a dairy poster contest with several age divisions. These are all excellent contests. If we can provide you with information about these contests, please let me know. 4-H District Project Achievement Day Contests 4-H District Project Achievement Day Contests will be here soon (June 16, July 11-13). Now is the time to be lining up participation and planning county contests. Contests in the 4-H animal and dairy sciences area are Visual Presentations for juniors (two divisions included [1] beef, sheep, swine, market goats; [2] dairy animals, dairy goats, dairy products). The other contest is dairy products judging for juniors. The contests will be held as follows: June 16: NE Contests, Itawamba Community College, Fulton; July 11: SE Contests, Laurel; July 12: SW Contests, Hinds Community College, Raymond Campus; and July 13: NW Contests, MS Delta Community College, Moorhead. Pork, Beef & Poultry Cookout Contests There will be a north- and south-half cookout contest for pork, beef and poultry. The contest dates and locations have not been determined at this time. Additional information will be sent from the State 4-H Office soon. Alert Horse Project Members about Ownership & Ethics Certification!!! NOTE: The 2017 Horse Show Rule Book is finished! When it is ready, we will let you know! Remind your 4-H ers and adult leaders that May 1 st is the ownership deadline for horses to be shown in the 2017 4-H horse shows. Also, each horse showing in the district 4-H horse shows must be accompanied by original registration certificate or official ownership form for grade horses (BOTH DATED & SIGNED BY MAY 1 ST ). Copies of registration certificate or ownership form must be sent in with entries by district show deadline. Horses must be in the name of the 4- H er, or in the name of an immediate family member (farm name is not eligible). Also, any youth that wishes to show in this year s District and State 4-H Horse Shows must be a 4-H member by May 1 st. The horse show entry deadline is May 1 st. In addition, a NEW 4-H er who plans to show in the 2017 District & State 4-H Horse Shows and at least one parent must have completed the Horse Ethics Certification program by June 1 st. Also, any NEW volunteers that assist 4-H ers with their horses must be horse ethics certified by June 1 st. Be sure to comply with the recently released Registered Volunteer Certification Process before certifying volunteers for horse ethics. 4-H ers that are only competing in the non-riding contests (horse bowl, horse judging, art contest, photography contest, hippology, public speaking, and demonstration contests) do not have to be ethics certified. However, these 4-H ers should be encouraged to be ethics certified!

3 An Official Negative Equine Infectious Anemia Test Certification or certified Coggins document (PHOTOCOPIES WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED) bearing lab number with animal identification issues within 12 months of the show date must accompany each horse in hand for all district and state 4-H horse shows. These certificates will be checked and must be in possession of the exhibitor and/or with the horse at the shows. If agent maintains original registration papers, agent MUST BE PRESENT at time of check in. Now is the time to be taking care of these important matters. Alert your 4-H ers. Horse Bowl Each county with teams is requested to submit 25 questions for juniors and 25 questions for seniors, regardless of the number of teams competing per county. These questions will be used in developing the district and state contests. These questions must be sent via email to Dr. Dean Jousan (dean.jousan@msstate.edu) by April 1, 2017. Questions and the correct answers must be typed, come from the official sources only and include reference source with page number. 4-H Dairy Poster Contest The theme for the 2017 Dairy Poster Contest is Get More with Milk. Publication 799 contains all the information about this contest and can be obtained from Extension Supply by electronic publication ordering from Department A9. Your winning poster in the three age divisions are to be delivered to a location to be determined on Wednesday, May 31 st, the first day of State 4-H Club Congress for judging in the state contest. The deadline will be 11:30 a.m. Good Luck! Dixie National Horse Bowl Winners The Horse Bowl Competition at the Dixie National Quarter Horse Show in Jackson on Saturday, February 18, 2017, was a great success. We had 6 junior teams and 6 senior teams compete this year. The winning teams in each division received trophy buckles and the second and third place received plaques sponsored by the MS Quarter Horse Association.

2017 DIXIE NATIONAL SALE OF JUNIOR CHAMPIONS The 48 th Sale of Junior Champions was another great event for our youth involved in the Mississippi 4-H Livestock Program.
