Pony Club officially kicked off the 2022 USPC Annual Fund in January. As we continue the theme of Pony Club Inspiration, hear why some of our donors are inspired to give: “Some of my happiest memories come from Pony Club, and I learned so much. I joined at 15 years old and was only able to obtain my C-1, but I am thankful for all my years in Pony Club” “The best years my children ever had. Teamwork, laughter, fun, responsibility, hard work and friendship” “Our family joined Pony Club in the 70s. One of the best things we ever did” “I was a parent, and as we all do, drove the trailer, helped at rallies and watched how wonderful Pony Club was. I learned a lot along with my children” “The incredible years my daughter spent being a Pony Club member. The knowledge, experience, and friendships will last her a lifetime. Also the involvement it gave me as a mom.”
