Future Farmers of America Horse Judging CDE

Rebel's Corner

BLUE RIDGE, Ga. – The Horse Judging Career Development Event (CDE) advances the knowledge of agricultural education students about the selection and management of horses.  Participants in the event judge classes of horses, give oral reasons for class placings, participate in a team activity and take a written examination.  Team members from Fannin County included Brooke Crowder, Kayla Hipp, Shelby Postell, and Alexis Ware.  Alexis Ware was the high individual for the entire contest.
