Welcome to the Alberta Trail Riding Association web site. ATRA is a non-profit organization actively involved in preserving the natural environment for future generations' enjoyment of equestrian activities such as driving and riding.

ATRA meets at 7pm on the 3rd Thursday of every month, excluding summer and December.  Please come and check us out!  Next meeting:

February 18th, 2010

Kirk United Church, 13535 - 122 Ave, Edmonton, AB

Guest Speaker:  Richard DeSmet - Keepers of the Earth: Approach to Stewardship

Richard, the Rainbow Equitation Society recipient of the 2004 Stewardship Service Excellence Award, adopted the 'keepers of the earth' approach in stewarding their natural areas.  Come and hear about their strategies, successes, challenges and what we might expect for our Natural Areas in the future.

Warmer weather is coming and ATRA is getting into full swing!

With the warmer weather comes many opportunities to get out with our equine friends.  ATRA once again has planned a huge variety of horsemanship clinics, local rides and equestrian camping trips to the mountains.  Please visit our 'Events and Trail Rides' page for details!  We love new members, and encourage you to sign up for one or more of our events!  Remember, for insurance purposes, anyone participating in any of our rides is required to have a current AEF membership.

A schedule of activities for 2009 is on the "Events" page.
The Executive for 2009 is on the "Contact Us" page.
