4-H members win big at Kalispell show

On September 12th five Sanders County 4-H Horse Project members began 3 days of intense competition in the Montana State 4-H Horse Show held at the Majestic Arena in Kalispell.  105 top winning 4-H riders from 23 counties from across Montana traveled to Kalispell for this highly competitive event.   This is the second consecutive year the event has been held in Kalispell.  Four of our county riders, Mahala Sweet, Marsada Sweet, Tanner Ovitt and Dariyan Sheehan are returning competitors from last year’s event.  As a new comer, Gabriella Pallister and her horse Whisper had lots of help from the more experienced (one year under their belt) members.  Stabling is provided on site.  Michele McGuigan, a Sanders County 4-H horse Leader and member of the State Horse Committee, provided transportation for some of the members and horses along will helpful assistance with show preparation.
