How much do you know about horses? If you were tested on our knowledge, how well would you do? Pony Clubbers in the Midsouth Region got to show how much they knew about horses at the Region’s annual Quiz Rally, held in Bowling Green, Kentucky on February 28, 2015. For the uninitiated, a Quiz Rally is an unmounted rally in which the participants compete based on their knowledge of horses. They must answer questions or demonstrate capability on a wide range of topics, including equine anatomy, body systems, tack, feed, health, veterinary care, and the Pony Club equestrian sports.
This year, West Tennessee Pony Club was well-represented by three members who had recently passed their C1 certifications and competed in the Jr. C division for the first time. The team of Sarah Beth Slaughter, Ethan Read, and Grace Read placed third in the Jr. Cs. Grace Read placed 4th, individually and Ethan Read was 5th individually.
Congratulations to these knowledgeable young riders! We bet they could teach you a thing or two!
