Angie has been a project leader for the Esprit de Corps 4-H horse club for 10 years. The past three years, she has helped the club organize a dressage schooling show as a fundraiser for the Lancaster County 4-H horse program. Angie also is a member of the 4-H Horse Volunteers in Program Service (VIPS) committee and a level tester for horsemanship level group testings.

“I really enjoy seeing how the kids’ participation in 4-H helps them develop not only good horsemanship skills, but also life skills that will prepare them for future endeavors,” said Angie. “Outside of the riding arena, the kids learn the virtues of hard work, compassion from caring for their animals, public speaking skills, decision making skills, delayed gratification and a host of other wonderful life lessons.”
