The San Juan Capistrano Equestrian Coalition is a non-profit 501 (c)(3), tax-exempt foundation established in 2003. Our goal is to preserve the equestrian lifestyle and our recreational trail system in keeping wiht the San Juan Capistrano city motto, “Preserving the Past to Enhance the Future.” Our members appreciate the old town feeling our city has to offer — the miles of multi-use trails and the beautiful open ridgelines. Whether you own a horse, or love hiking or boking on our wonderful trails, our goal is to conserve them for you and generations to come.
Our main objectives include:
- Preserving the equestrian heritage of San Juan Capistrano; maintaining its historical character, safeguarding the rural atmosphere of our City and the trail system that supports it as stated in our general plan.
- Maintain horses as the foundation of this heritage, continuing to provide opportunities for people to experience the healthy psychological and physical effects of horses.
- Establish an organization of members willing to contribute time, effort and money to conserve a way of life.
- Through representatives of the SJC Equestrian Coalition, speak out to protect our Equestrian lifestyle.
We serve to protect and promote the interests of those who value equine ownership an dactivities as important aspects of our quality of life. We will work with our Chamber of Commerce and the Economic Development Council to further develop the equine-related economic base. We need your interest, your help and your membership to accomplish these goals. If you share these objectives, of preserving an equestrian tradition and lifestyle, please join today.
