The Pony Club Pledge:
"As a member of the United States Pony Clubs, I stand for the best in sportsmanship as well as in horsemanship. I shall compete for the enjoyment of the game well played and take winning or losing in stride, remembering that without good manners and good temper, sport loses its cause for being. I shall endeavor to maintain the best tradition of the ancient and noble skill of horsemanship, always treating my horse with consideration due a partner.” |

How to Support Pony Club
Letter from the Development Director:
Since 1954, the United States Pony Clubs has been educating children and young adults who share a love of horses. But Pony Club extends far beyond teaching riding.
Pony Club teaches horsemanship and life-long leadership skills. It provides opportunities for members to learn valuable skills which help them develop into capable adults. Regional rallies, National Championships, clinics, camps, leadership training and special programs such as International Exchanges and the National Youth Congress are just some of the ways in which Pony Club Members, play, learn, teach, compete, and set and accomplish goals.
Pony Club Members understand the value of teamwork and sportsmanship, and they develop friendships which last a lifetime. Perhaps most importantly, they develop self-confidence to help them excel not only in Pony Club, but in life.
All of this is made possible by thousands of volunteers and the generosity of our donors and corporate sponsors. To find out how you can be a part of this, please visit the Web pages listed above. For those who have been Pony Members in the past, get caught up on USPC's activities by visiting our Alumni page.
USPC is a 501(c)3 organization, and, as such, all donations are tax-deductible to the fullest extent of the law.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
