Reading is essential to obtain the knowledge
required to properly are for and teach our horses and ponies. Much of the
pain inflicted upon our four-footed friends in inflicted through
ignorance; it is our duty to attempt to remedy this situation through our
education program. |

Riding safely and skillfully means that our members
will have a foundation of confidence and ability so as to be able to
pursue a healthy sport throughout their lives. Pony Club offers a range of
activities so that nearly every member, regardless of his or her mount's
skills, will be able to participate and make a start at this foundation. |

Responsibility is a natural result of having the
complete care of a living creature, and learning to care for it properly.
Consequences of acts faithfully performed are reflected by either a nicker
of recognition, or by the pinning back of ears. The competitions offered
develop sportsmanship and maturity. All of these characteristics,
once established, carry over into other areas of life.
