GENERAL INFORMATION

The Fort Dalles Riders facility is located at 1023 Irvine Street in The Dalles. We welcome horse lovers of all ages and riding disciplines and invite you to become members of our club, and participate in the many activities that the Riders club sponsors and supports. These activities include, but are by no means limited to: riding lessons (dressage, western, jumping, English), horse shows, clinics and training, playdays, barrel racing, gaming, square dancing, parades, and of course, trail riding.

We strive to:

  • Promote the welfare of horses by providing education resources for their proper care and training;
  • Promote healthy family values by providing a drug-free and alcohol-free environment;
  • Promote for all ages and skill levels, a continued involvement with horses and related activities by providing a year-round facility; and
  • Provide riding and meeting facilities for 4-H, High School Equestrian Teams, Wasco County Sheriff's Mounted Posse and Fort Dalles Pro Rodeo Association.

Our membership meetings are held the first Wednesday of each month at 7:00 at the clubhouse, located at 1023 Irvine Street in The Dalles. (map insert)
