The statewide 4-H Horse Stampede is planned for Saturday, March 27 on University of Nebraska-Lincoln East Campus. This event offers a variety of 4-H horse contests that don't require live horses, including public speaking, demonstration, quiz bowl, art and photography. Some changes have been made for 2021 in accommodation with health restrictions and guidelines.
All entry forms are due to county offices by Friday, March 5. Lancaster County 4-H Council will pay entry fees for Lancaster County 4-H youth.
Entry forms can be found at https://4h.unl.edu/horse/stampede.
Art and Photography EXHIBITS should also be handed into county offices by the deadline (open to 4-H'ers ages 8-18).
• Art exhibits must be labeled with the youth's information (full name, age division, and county) on the back of the exhibit.
• Photography exhibits must have the proper matting along with personal data tags attached to the back of the exhibit.
Demonstration and Public Speaking contests are currently being planned for in person on March 27, BUT may be altered to a virtual option that will be held live over Zoom, March 27 depending on health restrictions and guidelines on UNL Campus (open to 4-H'ers ages 10-18). Youth will be emailed their scheduled time and their corresponding Zoom link.
Horse Bowl is currently being planned for in person on March 27, BUT may be postponed to a later date depending on UNL Campus health restrictions and guidelines (open to 4-H'ers ages 10-18).
