Horses on Campus
We are bringing a miniature pony "Princess Aurora" from a petting Zoo onto campus! We hope to make everyone's day a little more stress-free by being able to pet Princess Aurora and her goat friends that are also coming along. We also hope to fundraise by selling polaroid photos of you and your friends with these animals for future Club events.
Horses on Campus 2.0
Two student volunteers are bringing their horses onto UBC Main Mall! The goal of this event is to raise awareness about our club and raise funds for upcoming events by selling raffle tickets to win a trail ride for 2! Anyone is welcome to come and ask questions, pet the horses and feed them some hay!

We are extremely proud of all our riders and the ribbons they brought home from their first show.
We would also like to congratulate Kalin Thomson on pointing up from Walk/Trot/Canter A to Walk/Trot/Canter B.
We look forward to cheering her on at Regionals this year!
November Trail Ride
UBC Equestrian headed out this November to Campbell Valley Park for our club trail ride with the Back in the Saddle Again company. The sun was out, making it perfect trail riding weather, although it was a little cold! Our less experienced riders had a great ride on some nice horses and enjoyed wandering through forests, and fields...even getting the chance to cross a river! Our more experienced riders also got to have some fun as they went trotting and cantering along the trail. They all had a great time and everyone had smiles at the end of the day. Some of our international members even got their first look at Canadian farm life! We can't wait for the next club ride!
