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.
Scholarships
FRC takes pride in awarding up to four scholarships each year to current members. These scholarships are intended to support specific educational opportunities or championship competitions directly related to dressage or eventing (not for regular lessons or local shows). To qualify, applicants must be a current FRC member and have volunteered for a minimum of 4.5 hours.
In exchange for receiving a scholarship, recipients are required to contribute to the club in a tangible way, such as writing an article about their experience for the newsletter.
