The CHC curriculum has 21 Bible-based non-denominational units. Members work to fulfill the requirements, such as: Scripture memorization, 6 Devotions, 3 Projects/Activities and Bible reading. When a unit is completed the girls earn a charm to go on the CHC charm chain. There are different award options for a boys club, too!
The Devotions are Bible studies related to some aspect of horses and horsemanship. Some of the units are: TRUTH, CARING, CREATION, IN TRAINING, DESIGN, SHOWING, BITS & BRIDLES, TRUST & TRAILS, COMMUNICATION & CUES, CHOICES, RIDING CUES, WISDOM and more...
A Chartered CHClub is operated by an approved leader who has successfully completed the leadership application process . The application process helps CHC Inc. assure parents that Chartered CHC Inc. leaders are sincere Christians with plenty of horse knowledge who can be trusted with their youth.
