Trails and Rails 4-H Horse Club has been very busy in the month of August. First
they went to Double 00 Farm in Robbinsville for an educational event and community service. While at the farm, the club members learned how to desensitize horses by using various objects. Annette, the farm owner, has enough horses so everyone was able to work with a horse in the morning. After lunch, the club worked around the farm to help Annette.

During their monthly club meeting, Dr. Brittany Beil, from Whiskey River Large Animal Mobile Veterinary Services, spoke to them about various types of horses and also brought some horse bones for the children to inspect.

The next Trails & Rails club meeting will be September 19 at 5:30 PM at the Moss Memorial Library Meeting Room. If you are interested in joining Clay County's Trails & Rails Club, or any other 4-H sponsored club, contact Julie Lyvers at (828) 389-6305.
