Pony
Club is one of the leading junior equestrian organizations in the
world, represented throughout 30 countries! The United States has over
600 individual Clubs spread throughout 48 states and the Virgin
Islands, with more than 12,000 members.
It
is not necessary for a child to own a horse or pony, but they must
have access to one when required. Programs are offered in dressage,
eventing, show jumping, mounted games, tetrathlon, quiz, vaulting,
foxhunting, and polocrosse.
During
"dismounted" meetings members learn about feeding, shoeing,
veterinary care, and other areas of horse management. Under adult
supervision, the more experienced Pony Club members instruct and
assist younger members.
