Peggi Bindner, our Club-Level RIC, has put together a terrific Quiz Study Guide (Includes study outlines for all ratings thru C2), which she is making available to the entire region’s clubs and riding centers. Peggi divided the study topics into 11 sections starting with D1 level. It is recommended that clubs/rcs gather their own materials to demonstrate feeds, shoes, and blacksmith tools by asking for donations of used tools, shoes, etc. (Peggi had a PC in Wisconsin send her a sample of Brome hay, for instance.) Peggi visits all the local barns and searches their feed rooms for different grains and hays to bag up for the “Feeds” Box. The 11 Sections of Study are:
1. Conformation, Breeds, Markings
2. Tack and Dress
3. Blacksmith
4. Foxhunting
5. Feeding and Clipping
6. Dressage ring and types of fences
7. PC Activity rule summaries and outlines for PC ratings
8. Trailering
9. Common grasses grown for hay (color pictures)
10. Poisonous plants that are featured in the manuals and on the PC web site (color pictures)
11. Worms
Peggi is happy to copy and mail (at the expense of the requesting club/rc) the above Study Guides. The cost is $46 including shipping and insurance, but less if only D materials are requested. If not satisfied with the materials, expense is refundable. Contact Peggi for details/orders.
