About
Fullerton Recreational Riders
Our Club
Uniting Riders Since 1961
Fullerton Recreational Riders (FRR) is a nonprofit equestrian club dedicated to fostering horsemanship, community, and fun for riders of all ages and skill levels. Based in Fullerton, California, we proudly host monthly gymkhana shows from March through September, an annual gymkhana clinic, and special events that promote friendly competition, sportsmanship, and a shared love for horses. We also hold monthly general meetings where members can connect, stay informed, and help shape the future of our club.
Our members range from first-time riders to seasoned competitors, and we’re united by a shared passion for horseback riding and western riding traditions. Whether you're chasing barrels, earning year-end awards, or just enjoying time at the arena, FRR offers a welcoming space to grow, connect, and ride.
Our Story
Equestrian Enthusiasts
Fullerton Recreational Riders (FRR) was founded on the principles of camaraderie, respect for animals, and a deep love for equestrian sports. From our humble beginnings to becoming one of the few remaining equestrian communities in Orange County, our journey has been defined by dedication, perseverance, and the joy of riding.
​
We believe Fullerton and its Equestrian Center are vital assets to our city—rich in heritage and uniquely connected to over 26 miles of scenic trails that link city parks and natural spaces throughout the area. Our riding arena at Laguna Lake Park stands as a testament to this legacy, built and maintained through the hard work and passion of our members. When not hosting shows, the arena remains open for local equestrians to enjoy, offering countless hours of recreational riding.
​
Our mission is to preserve Fullerton’s equestrian culture for future generations and to safeguard the irreplaceable connection to the expansive Orange County Trail System. As a community, we celebrate the beauty of horsemanship and the thrill of the arena. Every rider’s story becomes part of ours—woven together by shared experiences, cherished memories, and the timeless bond between humans and horses.
