Welcome to Vista Palomar Riders... Started in 1946 and it is one of the oldest horse clubs in California.
VPR's Club Motto - "To promote good fellowship and recreation among horse loving people of this community and encourage them to own, ride and enjoy saddle horses. To enhance their knowledge and enjoyment of saddle horses, and to participate as a group in rides, outings, parades, horse shows and other equine related activities."
VPR has always been dedicated to promoting and protecting the equestrian lifestyle. The members' of today values are the same as the original founders values- they cherish their relationship with their community and their beautiful horses.
VPR embraces all forms of riding - English, Western, Show, Trail, Horse Camping on site and off site. Whether you are a beginner or advanced rider, we have something for you.

Hello Members,
Dear Vista Palomar Riders Family,
As we reflect on the past few months, I want to extend my deepest gratitude to our committee chairs, volunteers, and members who make this club so special. Your hard work and generosity are the foundation of everything we do.
A heartfelt thank-you goes to Stephen and Jocelyn Dunham for their leadership and dedication in making the Kids for Country fundraiser such a success. This wonderful event not only supported our club, but also raised money for the Boys and Girls Club of Vista, extending the positive impact of our efforts into the wider community.
I would also like to recognize Gail Cantrell for chairing the Annual Wagon Wheel event and to all of the volunteers who contributed their time and energy. This cherished tradition continues to bring our community together, and it would not be possible without your commitment and teamwork.
To every committee chair and volunteer whether you’re planning, setting up, cleaning, or simply lending a hand when needed please know how much you are appreciated. The spirit of Vista Palomar Riders shines because of you, and I am honored to serve as your president.
With gratitude,
Mario Denys
President, Vista Palomar Riders Club

Hi Members,
As many of you may have heard, a developer is proposing to build 83 single-family homes off Guajome Lake Road very close to Guajome Park. This project raises several concerns for our local area, and it’s important that our community stays informed and involved.
