Support Meadowlark Pony Club
Pony Club Mission:
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.
Donations to the Meadowlark Pony Club are tax deductible. Monetary donations will support paying for some of our monthly instructors and clinicians (some are very kind and donate their time) and will also support trips to regional rallies. Please contact our Treasurer to make a donation.
Our goal is to make horsemanship more affordable for youth to be involved in so that we can reach as many as possible. As such, we have a wish list of items and/or services that would make it easier for us to reach that goal. Some of these are large items, but we are happy to accept any donation large or small. Thank you for looking!
Items:
1. Saddles - Any old saddles that could be used by new members until they acquire their own or when they are outgrowing theirs.
2. Other tack - Any used tack which could be used by Pony Club members in any of the Pony Club disciplines.
3. Used Boots - Kids are constantly growing, and boots become expensive. It would be incredibly helpful to have used show boots, paddock boots, half chaps, etc., for the kids to use if they don't have anything.
4. Riding clothes - Breeches, jods, polos, show shirts, etc. If you don't want it anymore, we would be happy to store it in case one of our members has a need for it.
5. Protective Vests - Child through adult sizes. We want to keep the kids protected.
Thank you!
