The Rachel Wright Memorial Scholarship and Horse Show was established in memory of Rachel Wright. Rachel was a former Wyandotte 4-H’er and Ottawa County 4-H Horse Club member. Rachel was an inspiration to many of her horse club peers. She was very passionate about horses and family. Rachel was a spirited tomboy and a great horsewoman. She competed in many district and state 4-H horse events and won awards for her accomplishments. Rachel held arena records at the Tulsa State Fair for many years.
The Rachel Wright Memorial Horse Show is open to the public. This is a fun show for learning, practice, and friendly competition.
Entries are $5 each. There are two divisions. You may enter one or both divisions. Points will be given for 1st-10th placings.
1st-10 points

BUCKLES will be awarded to the High Point Winner of each age group (except Assisted) in both the Performance Division and Timed Event Division.
If you are entering multiple horses, please enter the exhibitor's name and the horse's name in parentheses. Ex. Rachel Wright (Lobo). This show will be judged on the exhibitor, not the horse. Please enter only one horse in the youth age group. The rest should be entered in the open classes; they will be considered exhibitions. Points will not combine for exhibitors with multiple horses. You can only win a buckle in one age group and with one horse.
ALL proceeds will go towards the Rachel Wright Memorial fund for 4-H members of OCHC. Funds pay for District and State 4-H Shows. For more information, ask Spirit at the Ottawa County OSU Extension Office.
