2nd Annual "Name the Horse and Rider" Game

Ok so you had a hard time with "Who Knows The Nose?" Game so we will have our 2nd Annual "Name the Horse and Rider" Game. Our C's were very good at this last year. Of course our prizes were Nerdy Ropes so there was a strong incentive. Same game, same prize, good luck to all!

The athletes: Glenn, Callie, Nicki, Marley, Makayla and Cheyenne.

Erin Wins 'The Mary Angela Jacquith Sportsman of the Year' Award!

This trophy honoring the memory of Mary Jacquith is given to the Pony Clubber that has demonstrated time and again the enduring sportsmanship needed in Pony Club. Erin was chosen by her peers and Horse Management to win. The trophy is being presented by Debra Jacquith, Mary's mother.

Just another HUG in Pony Club:

I came to take pictures of D-Day. A day when the C level Pony Clubbers teach the D levels something about horses. However what grabbed me was the sight of this little girl hugging a pony. This picture encompasses all that we are about: Happy child and a happy pony. Enjoy!

I am in the process of adding more security to this blog site. I needed to delete the previous blog to remove an unwanted link. Should be up and running again soon.

Callie and Flique

Hi
My name is Callie and my pony's name is Flique or "Scrapper John". He is around 27 years old and is a Morgan/QH cross. I think he was born in Orlando somewhere. When he was a 2 yr old, he was sick with strangles and Betty traded a little cash and a six pack of beer (her mom helped with the transaction) to buy him from a backyard horse owner. My first memory of Flique is riding him for my first horse lesson ever! If he were in a band, I think he would play an instrument in a jazz band. The coolest thing I have done with Flique is to canter on him, unexpectedly! If I could make life better for him, I would give him a warm, yummy fluffy, fancy stall and barn. I also wish he could be younger when I met him. I've learned how loving he can be when I spend time with him. I am impressed at how much he knows - he has taught me everything. He is so good that I have never fallen off. If he were a Disney character, he would be the cool cat who plays in the jazz band in the Aristocats. For Halloween we dressed up as Prom King and Queen.

To view other rider pony bios go to 2006 on the side bar. To submit a bio just email me and I will send you the questions to answer and I will need a photo of the pony and rider preferably standing like in Callies photo. Thanks, karen
