Fultonvale Outdoor Arenas Booking Calendar

We manage bookings for the Fultonvale Outdoor Arenas at 52029 RR 224. 

 

November 2024 a clay base has been done for a 2nd 90’ x 150’ outdoor arena.  Pipe fence completed and and sand spread May 2, 2025.  We also added gravel to the driveway and parking area and fixed the grading in a couple other low spots.  This second arena can be used as a warmup arena for shows or booked by individuals when no booking in large arena.  The large arena will only be allowed to be booked for non-profit clubs for shows, clinics and lessons groups.  Our goal is to always have 1 arena open for public drop-in riding except for horse show bookings.  If the new arena is too wet, individual bookings may have to share the big arena with any drop in riders.

 

Colchester Ag Members may book arenas as early as November 1 for the next year April through October. For clubs or groups looking to book the arena, at least 20% of your group must be Colchester Ag members and we will need your membership list from the previous year at time of booking and current year April 1.  Bookings will open to the public April 1.  Number of hours booked may be limited based on group size.  Link to Membership page

 

Weekend daytime bookings are for groups only doing a half or full day show or clinic and take priority to any booking or public riding booked if the event runs late into the evening.   Individual bookings will be limited to 1 hour on weekdays anytime large arena is not booked.  If there is no bookings, both arenas are open for anyone to ride, but for exclusive use, they must be booked. 

 

The arena can be booked at no charge by e-mailing Lisa or phone 780-237-7587 at least 1 month ahead.  All users are required to clean up after and haul out their garbage and manure.  Bring your own garbage bags, toilet paper & hand sanitizer for your events.  Please note that harrowing the arena is left up to the groups using it (there is an old set there - use them at your own risk). 

 

For bookings wanting the gate and concession building keys, please contact Lisa at least 2 weeks ahead of your booking to make arrangements.  We will charge a $100 clean-up fee if grounds are not left clean of garbage, manure and in good condition.  If not paid, we will cancel that groups future bookings.
