Welcome to the Gainesville Riding Club!
To stimulate interest in the ownership and training of horses and to promote community good will! We are a North Texas based riding club located in the heart of Horse Country in Gainesville, Texas. We are an organization that has a significant impact in the History of Gainesville. Our arena is the home of the Gainesville Rodeo and numerous other equine related attractions .Our goal is to encourage and apprise the importance of the equine industry in family oriented programs. We have introduced some wonderful new events for the year 2009. Our goal is to educate individuals in the equine industry. Whether you are involved with the equine industry at this time or not, we encourage everyone to come on out and see what it is about. The equine industry can be enjoyable and beneficial for everyone. You don't have to be an avid rider or have years of experience to enjoy horsemanship.
We also offer arena rental for exhibitions, practices, rodeos and seminars. Please contact us for rates and inquires for upcoming events. Come Join the Fun at the Gainesville Riding Club |
