WHAT IS IT?

The Monterey Horse Park is a nonprofit corporation formed in 2001 to develop an international equestrian competition, training and education center on approximately 340 acres of land set aside at the former Fort Ord between Monterey and Salinas and adjacent to the riding trails on thousands of acres managed by the BLM. The Horse Park is being developed in conjunction with BASOC (the Bay Area Sports Organizing Committee)

WHAT WILL IT PROVIDE?

When fully built, the Horse Park will be able to host breed shows and local, national and international competition in all seven FE1 disciplines (dressage, driving, endurance, eventing, reining, show jumping and vaulting). The Horse Park is also working in conjunction with the SPCA of Monterey County, which plans to build its horse rescue/adoption facility at the park. In addition, the California State University Monterey Bay (CSUMB) plans to make the Horse Park the home of its future equestrian team. Attached is the current list of the facilities which are being planned.

WHO IS BEHIND IT?

The Directors and other volunteers behind the Monterey Horse Park are equestrians with a variety of experience and skills from diverse parts of California who are committed to building the best equestrian center in the West. Since we are all volunteers, we depend upon your help and donations. For more information, contact any Director or call or Email us at numbers above.

WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE?

We are in consultations with the County of Monterey planning staff regarding acquisition of the designated land, the facilities to be built on that land and funding for acquisition and construction. We currently need (1) funding to finance the professional design services needed for detailed planning and (2) people with good ideas to help us make the Horse Park, located as it is in a beautiful part of Central California with perfect climate and footing, every equestrian's . dream come true. To help, please tear off and leave the attached information sheet at our booth or mail it to the address above. Thank you very much.
