NLR Youth Board
Who Are We?
The Northern Lakes Youth Board is a collection of youth interested in engaging in regional leadership and fostering stronger connections among our youth membership. The board voices the educational goals of youth membership to the adult leadership, but we also organize educational, social, and service opportunities in a safe and encouraging atmosphere. Working with an adult advisor, members learn leadership and organizational skills across multiple areas, including interpersonal, financial, and logistical. In all events, the social interaction with similarly-aged peers is stressed, as a strong community is an essential element for everything else we do.
New in 2025 - Meet Allison (Alli) Icenogle
Alli is our new NLR Youth Board Mentor and Regional Instructional Coordinator (RIC). She is very happy to mentor our 2025 Youth Board.
"I was first introduced to Pony Club in 2004 through my older sister's love of horses. Shortly after joining Pony Club, my parents got me my first pony, a Shetland named Nicki, who was both a handful and a great teacher. At age 5, I passed my D1. Pony Club has been a keystone of my life, and that of my family, ever since. At 24, I recently completed my traditional/eventing A certification. 'I've grown from riding a sassy Shetland to now competing in the Modified eventing and Prix Saint George dressage levels on an Irish Sport Horse named Warren. I couldn't have done any of this without Pony Club. Now my goal is to give back to the community that shaped my riding career and give a helping hand so all the other horse-crazy kids like me can have the opportunity to see all that Pony Club has to offer and where it can take them."
The NLR Youth Board plans and organizes C-Retreat for Northern Lakes Region. This is a weekend full of fun, friends and horsey stuff!
