Special Thanks to

|
Bert Sims
|
|
and his grading company for getting
our arena in shape for the upcoming season. Bert used
his laser-guided heavy equipment to grade our arena
and prepare professional- quality footing. If any of
you need high quality arena work at a reasonable price,
Bert’s your man. Bert is an honorary member of
the club and has helped us put many times over the years.

The VPR clubhouse is located in San Diego
County in the community of Bonsall. This community was named after
James A. Bonsall, a local Methodist minister and nurseryman back
in 1890. Mr. Bonsall was hauling lumber through Gopher Canyon and
was struck by the beauty of the area. Being a minister in those days
did not provided self-supporting income, so he decided to build a
house and plant a fruit orchard on his land. The original house of
120 years ago still stands today on Gopher Canyon, approximately
half a mile from the clubhouse nestled among the trees.

NOTE:

VPR GROUNDS INFORMATION:
|
The arena is open for members Monday through Thursday to
use. If there are no shows booked over the weekend, the
arenas will be open all weekend as well.
Please, No Turnouts in the Show Arena.
Another concern is leaving vehicles such as trucks and/or
horse trailers on the property without a board member being
aware that the equipment is there. There is no problem with
leaving them, just that someone needs to know who the equipment
belongs to. Also, if you plan to leave a horse on the property,
please let a board member know so that we are aware of who
the horse belongs to and that it is being taken care of.
