1854.2 | Another Riding Club | ABACUS::CARPENTER | | Fri Feb 18 1994 10:41 | 27 |
| Sounds great - I was never involved in a pony club. I feel like
I really missed out when I was growing up. I presently am a member
of an equestrian interest club, Hollis Area Equestrians. While the
majority of the membership is adult there are a few junior riders
who are members.
We hold our meetings at the either the Hollis Town Hall or the
Community Center in Pepperell and the membership fee is $10.00
for single and $15.00 for family. Unfortunately, we don't have
access to an indoor ring but there is a public riding ring in
Hollis which we use for some of our events.
The club sponsors educational seminars, dressage shows, gymkannas
(sp?), Hunter/Pace Event, etc. We also have social gatherings
like family picnics, Christmas parties, Christmas carolling on
horseback. This year we are planning a Murder Mystery ride.
The next meeting is scheduled for April 7th at the Hollis Town
Hall. The meeting starts at 7:00 and usually gets over around
9:30. Refreshments are served.
Back to the Bridle Ledge Adult Riding Club - can you please post
directions to the farm.
Thanks,
Cheryl

1854.3 | The Adult Pony Club | DECWET::JDADDAMIO | Seattle Rain Festival: 1/1-12/31 | Fri Feb 18 1994 14:05 | 10 |
| We have something similar out here in WA. The parent organization is
called Equestrians' Institute(aka EI) which is set up as an educational
foundation. EI sponsors clinics in the Olympic disciplines and Combined
Driving. EI also puts on a couple 3 day events each year.
A year or two ago, some of the folks got together and formed "The Adult
Pony Club" Ya don't *have* to ride a pony ;-) but you do have to be an
adult member of EI... The APC members do a lot less formal things with
local instructors, guest speakers, instructional videos, etc and have a
lot of fun socializing too.

1854.4 | Another thing I would like to volunteer my time for | POWDML::MANDILE | my hair smells like hay | Wed Feb 23 1994 09:55 | 9 |
|
We also have something similar in my area. (Southeastern MA)
The organization is called "Horses for Adults" and seems to
do the same type things-clinics, demonstratons, outings, etc.
It is actually directed at beginner adults who are looking to get into
the horse thing, and helps these new horse enthusiasts by setting
them up with an experienced horse "mentor", so to speak....
