Nancy Ballman shares this news from the local 4-H horse club “Bits & Spurs”…

Thanks to a generous donation from Islanders Bank and the helpful assistance of Alexandra Sherlock, Bits & Spurs was able to purchase new 4-H club hoodies which you will be able to see them wearing when they ride at the fair.

They would like to say a big Thank You to Islanders Bank and Alexandra! 

Bits & Spurs is the local 4-H Horsemanship club – a non profit group who meet monthly and have project horses that they take care of year-round. It is their responsibility to make sure the horses are fed and their stalls are cleaned daily. They also go to clinics and ride together as much as possible. They keep a project book up to date and turn it in before the Fair and then show their horses at the Fair. They also do a demonstration and a community project.

Nancy hopes to get the word out about this group to try and get more members. Their next meeting will be in February and will be announced on Facebook. To learn more about the group, visit the local 4H web site.
