Why join?
Do you like horses? Do you and your horse need some new things to do and places to go? Do you like getting to know other people who like horses, too? Then perhaps you should check out San Martin Horsemen’s Association. SMHA has been serving the community and local horsemen for over 50 years. You have probably seen us in the Morgan Hill 4th of July Parade, or perhaps at the Grand Nationals at the Cow Palace. Maybe you saw the fantastic 12-Man (Horse!) Ride the Quadrille unit put on for San Martin School’s 100th Anniversary. Or maybe you’ve followed a horse trailer that says, “Please don’t ride my tail.” Wherever they go, they sure grab your attention. But there is a lot more going on behind the scenes, with many activities for youths and adults of all riding styles and disciplines. You don’t even need to have a horse!
San Martin Horsemen’s Association has been here to enlighten its members and the community about horse and rider safety, environmental issues, and veterinary tips. It has also been there to support County and State Park & Recreation trail maintenance and support the local Pony Club and other equine activities in the area.
Every month, SMHA has a General Meeting at a local venue at 7:00 PM. We also have monthly pleasure rides at different locations like Dinosaur Point, Mt. Madonna, Henry Coe State Park, and Salinas River Beach. There is a Halloween Poker ride where horse and rider can come in costume and win prizes for their imagination and ingenuity. There are camping trips at local horse campgrounds.
SMHA has sponsored CSHA sanctioned horse shows, NATRC Competitive Trail Rides, Gymkhanas, a parade unit, a quadrille unit, as well as trailer backing, trailer maintenance, horse camping, and cinch making clinics. These are fun opportunities for kids and adults alike. There is really something for everyone and their horse.
