Be sure to unload your trailers as efficiently as possible. All trailers will be parked in trailer parking behind the Alltech Arena.

There will be no arrivals before July 19th at 12:00 noon and all members who are not staying for education must have their stalls stripped and moved out by 7:00 am on July 24.

Parking Passes
Attendees must purchase a $15 event parking pass from the front gate of the KHP. This pass must always be displayed and is valid for the duration of the event (July 19 – 26). Vehicles choosing to not purchase an event pass will be required to pay a daily $5 parking fee.

Stabling
Stabling assignments will be emailed and posted on the USPC Festival Website on Monday, July 19th. All teams will have a Tack Room and a Feed Stall. Team stalls are assigned in blocks and the team will determine their configuration within the block. As a reminder, all stalls must be stripped upon departure. Participants who do not strip their stall will have their deposit checks cashed.

The United States Pony Clubs, Inc. (USPC or Pony Club) is the largest equestrian educational organization in North America. Started in 1954, the organization has developed curriculum that teaches safe riding skills and the care of horses through mounted and unmounted lessons. Through Pony Club, members have fun with horses and make lifelong friends while they develop skills, habits, and values that extend well beyond the barn and last a lifetime. Many members apply what they have learned in the USPC program successfully in their careers, educational and volunteer opportunities, and other life pursuits.
