Welcome to the Gettysburg Riding Club. Established in 1952, we are a non-profit group of horse lovers who come together to promote horses and horse activities in south central Pennsylvania. Each year, a portion of our proceeds goes to the Gettysburg Hospital Foundation, the Adams Co. 4-H Equine Club, Adams County SPCA and Shining Stars Therapeutic Ministries. We are the longest, continuous contributor to the Gettysburg Hospital. To read more about the club's inception, go to 'History' from the Home page icon.
Our club has its own show grounds, the Alice & Kennie Foust Equestrian Park, which is located at 102 Hounds Run in Gettysburg, PA 17325. We host several shows including the Blue & Gray circuit and a benefit for Shining Stars Therapeutic Ministries. Our members have a variety of riding interests, both Western and English, from trail riding to fox hunting. When possible, we organize trail rides and social events both with and without our horses throughout the year.
