About Us

Foothills Riding Club is organized to promote equestrian interests for all horse lovers, including dressage and combined training, through sponsorship of educational and recreational activities.

To achieve this goal, FRC provides the following services to the equestrian community:

  • Frequent educational seminars with informative and entertaining guest lecturers on various topics such as innovations in equine veterinary treatment, farm maintenance, safety equipment, competitions, etc.
  • A monthly newsletter with local updates and free ad space for members.
  • A website containing informative articles, news, and ways to stay connected with us.
  • A schooling show series.
  • Various clinics with knowledgeable clinicians from across the country.

Proceeds from these activities are donated to local area organizations such as Foothills Humane Society, Thermal Belt Outreach, PEER, TROT, Red Cross, Polk County Rescue, and others.

FRC takes pride in awarding four scholarships every year to its member riders. To qualify for an FRC Rider Scholarship, you must be a current member and should have volunteered for a minimum of 4.5 hours. Additionally, the scholarship you are requesting must be for a unique educational opportunity or a championship competition that is directly related to your riding discipline. In exchange for the scholarship, recipients must contribute to the club in some tangible way; i.e. writing an article of your experience for our newsletter.
