About Timber Ridge
The United States Pony Clubs, Inc., develops character, leadership, confidence and a sense of community in youth through a program that teaches the care of horses and ponies, riding and mounted sports.
Our members have competed in these various sports all over the United States. TRPC has also been very active in the USPC Rallies. Rallies are Pony Club member only competitions. Rallies not only include the riding aspects, but Horse Management is judged also. In the past our members have participated in Quiz Rally, D Rally, Show Jump Rally, Dressage Rally, Eventing Rally, Tetrathalon Rally and Games Rally.
TRPC has offered great “camps”, both during summer and winter months. Currently our Winter Camp is a great opportunity to learn all about the Horse Management topics. These include everything from grooming tools, to nutrition, to anatomy, to first aid, to poisonous plants, to the different types of wraps. There are many teaching and learning opportunities at our camps. The more advanced members teach the younger members some of the topics. The younger kids also have an opportunity to teach each other and give presentations. Teaching is a big part of Pony Club. We also have many professionals come to our camps to share their knowledge with all of our members. Winter Camp is an unmounted opportunity only, there is no riding involved. This usually takes place in January and is a great time for new members to get started with their Pony Club journey!
USPC Pony Clubs and Riding Centers are assigned to one of 41 geographical regions, which are administered by a volunteer Regional Supervisor (RS) and other appointed and elected officers. Regions offer additional activities and opportunities for members and support for the club and center leaders under their administration.
Timber Ridge Pony Club is part of the North Central Prairie Region.
