The 2009 Maryland 4-H Horse Bowl Contest was held on Saturday, March 7, 2009 at the Plant Sciences Building on the University of Maryland - College Park, MD campus.   This year's contest brought youth from 12 counties from around the state.  This event couldn't have been such a great success without the help of the great volunteers that helped run the contest.  Volunteers included on-campus and off-campus educators as well as county volunteers, parents and youth and UMD Students.  Results from this year's event can be found at www.4hhorse.umd.edu/activities /horsebowl.html  Congratulations to all of the 4-Hers and counties that participated in this year's event.  Your hard work really showed!!  The Top Ten Seniors have qualified to compete for a spot on the state team that will represent Maryland at the 2009 Eastern National 4-H Horse Roundup Contest in Louisville, KY.
