Old Peoples Riding Club | A riding club for the over 21 equestrian and for all disciplines! " …for the learning experience, the fun, the camaraderie;
not the ribbon, or the glory, but for the memories ..."
I have been a member of OPRC since 2008. Time really flies! I joined
after much encouragement from Sheila Haviland, who I met in my desire to be
around horses. I have a wonderful husband, Robert, and a great family that
do not understand this desire, but support me in it. I am very thankful for
that. I did not start riding until I turned 50, after finding out I had a
serious heart and lung issue. I decided that I had to start riding right
then! A short time later I joined OPRC. I have never owned a horse, so it
seemed strange to join a "riding club". It was the best decision I have
ever made. Participating in the club has given me so much. Great friends,
great fun, and experiences with horses and the horse world I never imagined
having. I plan to continue to learn to ride and care for horses as this
journey continues.
