logo

Welcome to the Peachland Riding Club website!

We are located approx. 4.5 kilometeres up Princeton Avenue in beautiful Peachland British Columbia. If coming from Penticton turn left at the lights, if coming from Kelowna make a right. We are located right accoss from the Municipal Works Yard on the left.

Our club was founded in 1969 and has grown ever since. Besides the 6 Gymkhana Fun Day Shows that we do every year we also hold a lot of other shows such as Western Heritage, Can Trek Events and in 2006 we started to work towards our first Little Britches Rodeo that is going to be held in July of 2007. We also get involved in the 2 yearly Parades that Peachland has and help out in the Community.

We have over 8 Acres of gorgeous park land, a oversized Arena and 2 huge warm up arenas for all to enjoy. We also have 12 full stalls, and 11 pens for the horses that don't want to be tied when you are up enjoying one of our many events. We have a full concession on site and a beautiful Clubhouse that has many improvements for the past 3 years. Our clubhouse is open for all sorts of events. It will hold approximately 110 people and is a great place to hold your next function. Make sure to check out Rental Info.

The area around our club has a multitude of trails around it that the Peachland's Sportsmen's Association is in the process of marking and trying to save with all the future development.

We hope that you find our site easy to use and if you need to get a hold of anyone check out the contacts list for further info.

Thank you for visiting us and please feel free to leave us a comment or suggestion. We welcome the input. See you up there.

Message From the President - August 2008

Hello all,

Have some amazing news that we need to share with the rest of you; our very own Bailey Woods of Peachland BC had an amazing finish at the Canadian High School Finals in Williams Lake. Bailey and her horse Tyke, placed 6th overall in break away roping, and 10th overall in barrel racing… this is an amazing accomplishment, congratulations to both Bailey and Tyke for being great competitors, and showing your stuff to the rest of the country.  Wow!

Another high note, our second annual Little Britches Rodeo took place on the last weekend of July.  We had over 70 riders along with supporting family members at this year's event.  We had a great time, with Rod Sterling doing the announcing, hey Rod still running the trailer on 3 tires?  Mexican Joe Dias who was our arena director, along with Rodeo Director Sandy Chevallier doing all of the organizing and keeping all of us cowboy' inline, you guys did an amazing job.  We also had Cowboy church with about 60 attendees, and a special group of visitors from the Westwood Retirement center coming up to join us for church and watch the kids do their stuff.  I want to say a huge thank-you to all of our organizers, sponsors, volunteers, riders, family members and spectators, and stock suppliers.  All of you did a great job, thank-you for setting such a great example to the young riders who came to Peachland.

Again thank-you to our members and volunteers for participating at the Gymkhana, this is a great event and with great people enjoying their passion, riding!
