Welcome to the Piedmont Pony Club Website!
Located
in Athens, Georgia, we are a local branch of the United States
Pony Clubs, Inc. Pony Club is one of the leading junior equestrian
organizations in the world, represented in 30 countries. The
U.S. has over 600 individual clubs spread throughout 48 states
and the Virgin Islands, with more than 12,000 members. The
Clubs are divided into region. Piedmonth Pony Club is part
of the South Region, made up of clubs from Georgia, Alabama,
and the pan-handle of Florida.
Pony
Club provides opportunities for instruction and competition
in English riding horse sports, and horse management for children
and young adults up to 25 years of age. The term "pony"
refers to the age of the members, rather than the size of
the mount. Horses/Ponies of many different breeds, shapes,
and sizes are seen in Pony Club activities.
The mission of the USPC is to provide a
program for the youth that teaches riding, mounted sports
and the care of horses and ponies. Thereby developing responsibility,
moral judgment, leadership and self-confidence.
