The USPC Research Project Fair provides members with an opportunity to explore their passion for horses and horsemanship through hypothesis-driven projects or in-depth reviews of the literature. Congratulations to the following participants, and we offer a big thank you to all participants, parents, and the sponsors who helped Pony Club put on a great event in pursuit of scientific learning.
