The 4-H Pledge I Pledge

My HEAD to clearer thinking, My HEART to greater loyalty, My HANDS to larger service, And my HEALTH to better living, for my club, my community, my country, and my world.

Safety Check When you can check the following items off this list, you are a safe Cloverbud! I do: 

Talk to a horse to let them know where I am



Move slowly around horses so I do not scare them







 

Catch my horse with a halter that fits well and has a strong lead rope Lead a horse from the near (left) side and walk with it Tie a horse safely and correctly to a sturdy place, like a post or crossties Let an adult help me saddle a horse to ride Take someone with me to ride so that I never ride alone



Wear proper boots/shoes and a helmet when riding



Mount and dismount from the left side only



Check the barn area for nails, glass, wire and cans (ask for help in removing them)
