Welcome to the Purdue Equestrian Team!
The main purpose of this club is to expose interested Purdue students to horses and the sport of riding, regardless of experience. Students are able to take hunt seat riding lessons through the team, learn how to ride, and help the team prepare for our intercollegiate horse shows. Although showing is a large part of this club, it is not required to be a part of the club. Many students ride for fun and to interact with horses, which in itself is the best part of the sport!
Members of the club are highly involved, whether it is through lessoning, showing, attending social events, or attending meetings. Monthly meetings are held on the first Thursday of every month. Meetings include club updates as well as fun activities and guest speakers. The only set requirements of a club participant include paying club fees (see below) as well as helping out during our biannual Purdue show. Most shows will be held on weekends at Saint Mary's of the Woods College or at Black Dog Enterprises, the homes of the Taylor and Ball State Equestrian Teams. Participating in shows is highly encouraged! But don't worry if you don't have the clothes, since we all share show attire to make sure anyone who wants the opportunity can show.
The following are costs involved with the club (non-riding members need only pay the club fee):
