Seneca Valley Pony Club
Description
Lest we forget in the emotional excitement of competitions or in the trauma of A and B testing just what Pony Club is all about, let me remind you that it is not to make Olympic riders, though we will take great pride in any Pony Club member who can reach that height; it is not to turn out highly polished riders mounted on expensive horses, though we all admire the picture when treated to it; it is not to turn every child into an A rider or even a B. It is to provide every child with a backyard horse or pony the opportunity to develop his skill in riding and horse-care to the point where he is a proficient C. It is to instill in him a love for horses and an ability to care for and enjoy horses for the rest of his life and through this contribute to his development as a well-rounded, self-disciplined and responsible citizen. If we have done these things, we will have done our job. Comments on the goals of Pony Club by Rufus Wesson, USPC President from 1970-1972:
Rallies are competition among the various clubs that constitute the Capital Region. The SVPC participates in dressage, show jumping, combined training and games rallies each year. Significantly, teams from each club, rather than individuals, compete against each other. The SVPC encourages participation by all members at rallies.
Pony Club strives to improve every aspect of a child’s relationship with horses. This includes horse care, horsemanship, riding skills and an exposure to a wide array riding events and styles. Pony Club does though extensive training and testing programs and through competitive rallies.
