THE SANDPOINT SADDLE CLUB  is celebrating our 63rdh Anniversary.   We are the oldest horse club in the Northern Idaho and have contributed to our wonderful city’s colorful history.

Incorporated in 1945 as a non-profit organization, the Sandpoint Saddle Club has been an ever present group of people continually involved in various horse related events. Activities have included riding instruction, assisting with the building of the Sandpoint fairgrounds in the late 1960's, involvement with community parades and the annual horse show, which has not missed a year since its beginning on June 27, 1943.
