‘Sharks Home Opener Wednesday May 9th

 Camden, NJ . Now that the 2011 season has concluded, the first key piece of the 2012 season has fallen into place as the Atlantic League has released the schedule for its 15th season.

The Gloucester County 4-H Equestrian shined at the 2011 New Jersey State 4-H Championship Horse Show held September 9-11 at the Horse Park of NJ – after a two week delay due to Hurricane Irene. Fitting a full three-day show into two days and one evening was a bit of a struggle for the show committee, and not the most convenient time for the competitors, whom in most cases had just returned to school, but the team (and parents) showed great resilience, and 32 of the original 34 competitors were able to re-arrange their schedules to attend.
