March 13, 2017 (Lexington, KY) – The United States Pony Clubs, Inc. is proud to announce the new Professional Membership. Now all instructors, professors, teachers, and educators can have access to ready-to-teach educational material for their students.

Individuals who join will receive a variety of previously unavailable Pony Club instructional materials such as organized lesson plans, webinars, and Pony Club IQ (an interactive online informational tool).  In addition to the member benefits, Professional Members can choose printed material such as The Badge Program Guides and Workbooks in either riding or horse management through easy-to-understand Educational Packages.

“Over the years we have received a lot of interest from the equine community for Pony Club educational material. USPC graduates and members are testaments to the quality and reputation Pony Club education provides. We are excited for this opportunity to reach more equine professionals and educators not currently affiliated with Pony Club.” stated Karol Wilson, USPC Director of Member Services and Regional Administration.

No previous Pony Club experience or affiliation is required. For complete membership information and how to join, please visit ponyclub.org today and pick the educational package that is best for you and your students.
