Spring Down Equestrian Center

Horse Shows

Spring Down Equestrian Center hosts 4 open horse shows a year on our beautiful facility in Portola Valley. Whether you are at lead line level, or perhaps ready for advanced equitation or  hunters, we provide a friendly supportive schooling environment. Ride our horses or yours over artfully decorated jumps in our new arena with all weather footing. Selected classes count toward division High Point Awards. Shows are open to the public and to our lesson customers wanting to test their skills.

During intermission at our shows, our Rhythm and Blues drill team will delight the audiences dancing on horseback to a musical score. It is well worth a trip out to the barn to watch our hard working team make their dynamic ride look seamless.

Mark your calendars!
The next Spring Down Horse Show is Sunday, March 4, 2012!

We Helped the San Jose Mounted Patrol!
At our Horse Show on Sunday March 6th, we raised funds to keep the San Jose Mounted Patrol going. Spring Down will be donating matching funds up to $1,000.00... and since we raised over $1,000.00 at the show, we will be donating over $2,000.00 to help keep the Mounted Patrol in business. For all of you who came to our show, supporting the amazing Spring Down Drill Team, and helping us support the San Jose Mounted Patrol - thank you so very, very much! The San Jose Mounted Patrol has actually met their short term goals thanks to Spring Down and many others who have made the effort to help them out - so they will be able to continue their work for another year. Learn more about the San Jose Mounted Patrol on the SJ Mercury News website...
