This book was written by Stacy Gregg. It was 2 books in 1 with a sneak preview of her next book at the end. It was about 512 pages long butI thought it was a fairly quick read. It is a great book for animal lovers especially horse lovers. It is aimed at about 10 year olds but I still enjoyed it and Iβm an adult. It had good story lines. I donβt know much about horses but as an animal lover I enjoyed this book.
I'm just curious about something --
I don't know how popular Pony Clubs are in America now, but when I was growing up (uh, 20 to mumble mumble years ago), most of us teens at my barn were members of the Pine Tree Pony Club (such a clever name lol). I learned so much through them -- we had to take written tests, and we had inspection days where people actually came out and inspected our horses for cleanliness and proper tack, and they asked us questions about our horses and barn management.
I remember there were different levels you could earn, like a C-2, a C-1, then a B-2, and a B-1. I don't think we even dreamed of an A, it was so hard lol.
I don't know how other kids saw it, but I was just ecstatic to learn everything I had to know for Pony Club and would throw all my other homework aside for it! It was a fantastic program and taught me a lot about how to take good care of my horse.
Was anyone else on here in Pony Club growing up? Is anyone in one now? Do they even still exist?

I'm struggling at work today and decided to make a secret nerd club based in the Richmond area. Who wants in?
EDIT: Alright I decided to be smart and make a discord: https://discord.gg/DGmK8PPt
If the invite doesn't work just message me and I'll invite peeps.
While Iβm not typically a fan of Cosmopolitan because it usually promotes pickme ideas and behaviors, I thought this article was a great step in addressing revenge porn and the fact that it doesnβt always come from an ex. We all know Reddit is a cesspit of non-consensual pornography, and 99% of the time the admins do nothing about it. I do hope more and more awareness is brought to subreddits like the one this article mentions, but I donβt know if enough people care. Still, I appreciate the different aspects of revenge porn that this article explores, and I hope that it will/has reached women and made them think about who theyβre really dating and if they can actually trust him.
I donβt know what flair to use, but anyways, does anyone know of any other gacha besides FFBE/FFRK that has a βsecret whale clubβ. Not too sure about FFRK, but in FFBE, content creators/whales are invited to a discord server to talk directly with Hirono and Fujimoto and the CMs, and also we sometimes receive newer units in the mail with basically a do not tell notice (I canβt confirm nor deny this, but from what I heard, multiple copies of heroes like LH Sephiroth, LG Auron, were sent in this fashion).
I am looking at perhaps going through the certifications (D-A) of the US Pony Club instead of going to college for Equine Studies. (I asked my barn manager boss about it, and she said her degree in Equine Studies was a waste of time and taught her nothing she needed to know about running a barn, and saddled her with a bunch of debt to top it off.) She highly recommended that I go through the US Pony Club instead, and gave me one of the workbooks to look through to see if I was interested. Suffice to say, I very much am, but I wanted to know if anyone in the group has gone through this process and what it was like? What was the time commitment like, money commitment, work commitment, etc,. Thank you in advance!
...Is that they tried to keep the fight-club a secret.
Why would fight-clubs need to operate underground in Vacuo, of all places? Especially since gambling is perfectly legal.
The Mirage could have operated completely in the open, with no secrecy, no passwords, and merely kept quiet about The Crown behind it.
They don't even need to worry about information security, since The Crown brainwashes anyone whose loyalties might be questionable.
Okay, I'm actually hoping this exists in horse world and I just haven't gotten the secret password for my area. But ... we need pony/riding clubs for adults that are just focused on enjoyment (and learning, of course). I've come back to riding at 36, with my childhood background just being some horse camp summers and occasional rides. While I did do my first schooling hunter show this past weekend for kicks, I really just want to ride for enjoyment (but improve, of course). Since I work full-time and have two kids in daycare (one about to start kindergarten but we still have to pay for before/after care because jobs and school schedules do not jive), I don't fit in with the moms of the kids riding at my barn, nor do I fit in with the high school hunter show riders. I'm just kind of ... there.
I did do some Googling trying to see if there was an adult pony club of sorts in our area, and there really isn't. "Adult pony club" is for college kids. There is a hunt club, but you need to be invited in and I have a feeling it's not the vibe of "let's just enjoy horses as we can."
Also, maybe it's just my area, but horse world seems very cliquey and don't cross the streams. I noticed very little interaction between groups at the schooling show, which was disappointing, because I'm the oldest student at my admittedly wonderful barn - but I'd hoped to find some fellow adult adults that aren't either the trainers or the rider moms.
Any ideas how to make adult rider friends?
