About the Tri-State Region
When a member joins a local pony club or riding center, they also join the region where that club or center belongs and USPC. The United States Pony Clubs, Inc. (USPC) is divided into 41 regions. The Tri-State Region has eight local clubs and two riding centers. Programs are offered in Dressage, Eventing, Show Jumping, Mounted Games, Tetrathlon, and Horse Management. During "unmounted" meetings, members learn about feeding, shoeing, veterinary care, and other areas of horse management. Under adult supervision, the more experienced Pony Club members instruct and assist less experienced members. Many competitive riders at the national and international level are graduates of Pony Club.
