Why join

What BIHORA members get.

Your annual membership supports the Crippen Park riding ring, trail advocacy, and community events — and unlocks the private members area online.

Members-only gatherings

RSVP to rides, clinics, potlucks and workdays organized by and for BIHORA members — with all the details you need in one place.

Private community forum

Ask questions, swap hay tips, coordinate trailer rides, buy & sell tack — a friendly, private space just for members.

Wildlife & trail alerts

Real-time member-submitted sightings of bears, cougars, and hazards on Bowen's trails, so you can plan safer rides.

Document library

Meeting minutes, insurance info, ring waivers, trail maps and other member resources — always up to date.

Community partners

Discover Bowen and Sea-to-Sky businesses that support our equestrian community — some with member-only offers.

Safe & moderated

A private, respectful space. Members agree to a simple disclaimer and code of conduct so everyone feels welcome.

How it works

Three simple steps to get inside.

  1. 1

    Create your account

    Sign up with your name, email, and password. Accept the community disclaimer and code of conduct.

  2. 2

    Pay your annual dues

    Download the membership form and send in your annual dues — this activates your BIHORA membership.

  3. 3

    Get activated

    A BIHORA administrator activates your community access, and you're in — welcome to the herd.

You don't need to own a horse to join.

BIHORA welcomes riders, owners, boarders, families, and supporters of Bowen Island's equestrian heritage. If you love horses, you belong here.
