Santa Ynez Valley Equestrian Association
The Santa Ynez Valley Equestrian Association is a non-profit organization serving the Santa Ynez Valley. Our organization is based out of the Santa Ynez Valley Equestrian Center at 195 N Refugio. The mission of the Santa Ynez Valley Equestrian Association is to provide a multi-use facility for equine activities with accompanying educational experience in order to foster safe and humane horsemanship. Our goal is to develop, maintain and operate our equestrian center in a manner that preserves and enriches our community’s equestrian lifestyle including youth and therapeutic riding.
The center is envisioned as a resource that will attract quality equestrian events and innovative instruction to improve the special relationship between horse and human. The SYVEA facility serves as the home of Santa Ynez Valley Therapeutic Riding as well as the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Posse. Featured equestrian events throughout 2024 include Valley Penning Association Team Sortings, On The Bit Dressage Schooling shows, 4H events, Santa Ynez Valley Cutters Clinics and Competitions and our November Ranch Cutting-RopeNSort-BBQ Party-Auction Fundraiser.
