Welcome to the
     Peachland Riding Club

Peachland Riding Club (PRC) is located in beautiful Peachland British Columbia. We have over 8 acres of gorgeous park land with a multitude of trails, a oversized main arena and 2 huge warm-up arenas. We have a full concession on site and a beautiful Clubhouse that holds approximately 110 people and hosts all sorts of different events. In 2008 we built a new announcers building; a great addition which is a 2-story facility that gives timers and announcers a great panoramic view of the whole arena. The Peachland Riding Club grounds and clubhouse are a great place for your next function (Rental Info).

Our club was founded in 1969 and has grown ever since. Besides the monthly Gymkhana Shows that we hold throughout the riding season, we now also hold other events such as Western Heritage, Can Trek, Little Britches and High School Rodeos. Our club also participates in Peachland's 2 yearly parades.

Thank you for visiting us and please feel free to leave us a comment or suggestion and if you need to get a hold of anyone check out the contacts list for further info.

PRC Message from the President

January 2012

Allow me to start by wishing everybody a Happy New Year and all the Best in 2012.  My name is Verne Kaiser and I will be your new PRC President for the current year.

I will be surrounded by a very capable & energetic Executive Board:

Vice Pres: Tyler Dunkin

Secretary: Darlene Pappas

Treasurer: Loree Currie

The balance of our hard working & dedicated Directors’ – Positions etc will be displayed on our website. Along with some new faces comes some new ideas, I know everybody hates changes but we promise to make these if any as painless as possible. Hopefully by the time you have the chance to read this memo, our web site will be updated with all the updated info. Our Gymkhana Schedule Dates – Meeting Schedule Dates have been established & are posted, so this will give everybody a chance to adjust their personal schedule & mark these Important Dates on their New 2012 Calendars.

We are bringing back some old policies also: enclosed in your New Revised 2012 Membership Application – note the changes!

I encourage you to fill out the membership form & mail along with you payment ASAP.  This will ensure you will be ready for the Season start with no hassles or interruptions.

We are a Volunteer driven organization so without volunteers the PRC services will be stretched, so please find a few hours a month to make our Season a success.

In closing the PRC have a very busy & exciting Season planned & I personally invite present & past members to join us in 2012. I have an open door policy and will not be offended in any way by constructive criticism.

Until then - Verne
