Do you enjoy teaching? If so, check out Pony Club's Visiting Instructors program. The Visiting Instructors program is run through the national office, and connects older members with clubs across the country looking for instructors for their programs. Check out visitinginstruction.ponyclub.org for more information. If you are interested in hosting a visiting instructor please email visitinginstruction@ponyclub.org. This program is highly recommended by this year's NYB delegates, so check it out!

Enjoy meeting new people? Pony Club's social media site USPCriders brings members together. Join it at USPCriders.ning.com.
The National Youth Board strongly encourages all interested and eligible members join their club and regional junior boards. If your club or region does not have a junior board we recommend that you contact your DC or RS about creating one. The appendix P of the DCGuide, has more information and examples of junior boards.
