Educational offerings abound during USPC Festival! This year features mounted clinics in dressage and western dressage, hunter seat equitation and show jumping, cross-country for the eventing enthusiast, as well as mounted games and gymkhana, natural horsemanship, and distance riding. Unmounted workshops and demonstrations will cover many popular topics as well as Horse Management topics for beginner (D) through advanced (H-A) equine enthusiasts.
A USPC membership is not required to register for and attend Education at Festival. Pony Club welcomes any equine enthusiast to participate in this opportunity to learn from some of the best the equine world has to offer.
Unmounted Education sessions are included in the Mounted registration, or you can register for Unmounted Education only. Those who choose a mounted registration select up to four (4) mounted clinics in which they wish to participate across the two-and-a-half-day period. Keeping both rider and horse in mind, pairs are only permitted one over-fences (jumping) clinic per day. Mounted participants may also participate in an unlimited number of unmounted workshops. Stabling registration is done separately.
Choosing an unmounted registration allows the registrant access to an unlimited number of workshops and the ability to audit any mounted clinics of their choosing for the duration of the event.
Have a younger member between 6 and 12 years old and is an un-certified through D-2 rider that would like to participate in mounted opportunities? D Camp could be just the place! This exciting opportunity allows youth members to ride their mount twice each day in small group instruction, to participate in unmounted instruction in the barn, and gives participants the chance to care for their mount at the iconic Kentucky Horse Park. Space is limited for this opportunity - register early for a guaranteed spot.
