Pony Club
does not only cater for younger riders, but for those adults who are still
young at heart!
Pony Club is held approximately once a month, with different events
occurring all the time. These include hacking days, gymkhana days,
dressage-instruction days, and also fun dress-up days, which includes a presentation.
Pony Club is not run through the Darkes Forest
office, but it is held here on our premises. This means that if you do not
have your own horse, we can help. Darkes Forest
Riding Ranch allows for Pony Club members to book a horse at the start of
the year to use for each Pony Club day. The cost is $110 for the 3 1/2
hours that Pony Club runs.
Pony Club is not only about competition, but also a very social event on
our calendar. There is a waiting list for 2009, so if you are interested
and want to put your name down, or want any more information, please contact us.
