In the past, not everyone who loves horses has had the opportunity to join a Pony Club as they don’t own a horse. The “Pedestrian Equestrian” program is for everyone, because you do not need to have a horse to participate. You just need to be interested in horses and want to learn more.
As a Pedestrian Equestrian member, you are entitled to participate at all Karalee Hack & Pony Club activities. You are able to join in at all musters (club training days) which are held every second Sunday of the month starting at 8.30am– 2pm (Feb-Nov) and our Christmas Breakup in December where we all go away family and all, camping with our horses.
As a member of The Karalee Hack & Pony club, all PCAQ rules will apply such as when horse riding you need to wear approved riding boots and helmet. At muster days members wear our Pony Club Shirt & cream jodhpurs, the Polo/Sunsafe Pony Club shirt is available to purchase from Kim Gill our Uniforms Officer at the Clubhouse.
The muster program will involve horse care sessions on topics such as riding equipment, horse handling, grooming, horse health, common ailments, feeding and choosing a suitable paddock. Tracey [President] will have her mare "Lady" for the Pedestrian Equestrian's to practice their grooming, horse handling etc, she is 34 and still going strong but not rideable as she is retired but great for kids and adults to learn about horses.....go Lady girl!!!
We look forward to having you join The Karalee Hack & Pony Club and share in the many joys of friendship while learning to ride, groom, feed and care for a horse.
** new members need to be approved by the committee at a committee meeting.
