COMMUNITY EDUCATION
Bridging Culture and Community
Each year, Vista Palomar Riders hosts two educational events for kids and the community, celebrating our amazing animals and honoring western heritage. Far more than your everyday lunch and learn, these live symposiums feature some of the best riders in Southern California demonstrating the remarkable athleticism of our horses with a big tip of the hat to our roots in the old west and the old ways of los Charros and the American cattle rancher.
