This year, members of the United States Pony Clubs, Inc. (USPC, or Pony Club) submitted their photos to showcase how they celebrate Halloween with their horse or their club/center as part of the Pony Club Halloween Photo Contest. The winner won: a backpack, complete with the Pony Club colorbar logo, with a go-anywhere design in a streamlined size that’s engineered to hold all the essentials in place; and a 20 oz. stainless steel water bottle with the Pony Club logo etched on the side. A highlight reel was made for Instagram. If you enjoy the reel, feel free to let us know by liking the reel to the left. Since we had so many entries, we hope you will enjoy even more Halloween images from Pony Club members below. And stay tuned for more contests from Pony Club, which we announce on our social media profiles, such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter; or you can subscribe to the Pony Club Enews.

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.
