USPC National Youth Board Accepting Applications for 2025; Deadline Extended to October 22
Are you a member of the United States Pony Clubs (USPC or Pony Club) between the ages of 18–23 and interested in contributing on a national level in 2025 and beyond? Then, the USPC National Youth Board (NYB) wants you to join us in 2025!
The USPC National Youth Board is composed of 16 members from across the entire USPC. Board members have a two- or three-year term, which includes opportunities to serve as officers within the board (e.g., Chair, Vice Chair, Secretary, etc.). Each board member gets to be the voice of youth members to Board of Governors committees and the Board of Governors as a whole! The NYB is an opportunity to be part of what happens at the national level within the United States Pony Clubs. There is no certification requirement, just the age requirement and the need to have passion for USPC!
The NYB application is now open as an online submission application. As you complete the application, you will fill in your contact and Pony Club information, along with experiences and interests, and then you will need a letter of recommendation from a Pony Club leader. Simply send the link provided in the application to a Pony Club leader of your choice for your recommendation letter, and they can easily fill out the form and submit your letter of recommendation. You are able to start the application, save your work, and return at a later time to complete, but don’t forget to finish and submit your application by the deadline. The deadline for the application submission to join the USPC National Youth Board in 2025 AND receipt of the letter of recommendation is October 22, 2024. For questions, please email nybchair@ponyclub.org.
