Cimarron Note: I've been to Annual Meeting several times now, and it is one of the coolest things in Pony Club. At Annual Meeting, you get to spend 2+ days immersed in horsiness, with the side benefit of meeting/seeing other horsey people. Before my first trip to Annual Meeting, I didn't realize the sheer number and quality of classes offered (See Erin's description below and visit the Annual Meeting website for a list of workshops.) And, adults, you get to be Pony Clubbers and attend right alongside the kids!
Today is the last day to pre-register, which I urge you to do for the sake of the planners. Pre-registration is super-simple using online registration. If you can't register today, though, you can still attend by registering when you get to Nashville, so don't let that keep you from going. Oh, yes, did I mention, it's in Nashville this year? Home of country music?!?
