New Member Information

Thank you for your interest in our club!  We are delighted that you are interested in joining the USPC organization. Golden Hills Pony Club is a USPC chapter, located in Southern Santa Clara County. Our members come from Morgan Hill to Hollister…and beyond.  Club members participate in a wide variety of activities, including mounted and unmounted instruction, clinics, rallies and fundraisers. The USPC mission is to teach safe, effective riding and horse management/care while providing an opportunity for fun and friendship.

In order to join the Golden Hills Pony Club you will need to attend our next meeting along with your parent (s) and fill out the forms in the New Member Packet. We will need to receive all the signed paperwork and dues payment before you can begin riding and participating in the club. Our Club Treasurer will collect the dues and signed forms which will be sent in to the USPC National Office in Kentucky. USPC National will process your payment and Membership Application and then you can begin riding with the club.

Please take a look at the USPC website www.ponyclub.org and also the rest of this website for our club activities and info about Golden Hills Pony Club. We are currently meeting the 2nd Sunday of each month for mounted meetings/lessons. We work with several trainers at Red Fox Farm in Gilroy, as well as other local trainers. Most of our members also have regular riding lessons/training outside of the Pony Club instruction they receive. We meet the 4th Sunday of each month for Horse Management instruction in San Juan Bautista.

Becoming a USPC member is a great opportunity for young riders to learn and have tons of fun…it is also a significant commitment. Please stop by our next meeting and find out more!
