Giddyup: Pony Club's ‘Everything But the Horse’ rally


February 28, 2013 · 4:05 PM

Giddyup. Get ready.

The San Juan County Pony Club’s “Everything But the Horse” Show, and Jump, and Rally, returns Saturday, March 2, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., at Friday Harbor Elementary School.

The Show, Jump and Rally is intended for the newest and youngest pony club members throughout the region. At the “introductory” rally, participants demonstrate and are scored on horse care skills, presentation and knowledge of required equipment without the added burden of having a horse to contend with as well. Past EBTH rallies have drawn riders as young as five, and up to 18.

Founded in 1985, SJC Pony Club offers guidance in horse care and riding skills to children, and to adults under 25, and has helped to produce an impressive number of elite riders over the years. For info, 378-4852.
