Our History<\/h3>\n

The East Kent Hunt branch of Pony Club started in 1933 and is part of Pony Club Area 11.<\/p>\n

In the early days the instructors were all ex-military men and from small beginnings, the club grew to a membership of over 200 in the early 1990s. Our club now has a membership base of between 100 and 120 across all age ranges and is supported by experienced, qualified instructors and a dedicated team of volunteers both of past and present parents and members.<\/p>\n
