Join Park Rangers and volunteers in celebrating the 53rd Anniversary of the Morgan Horse Ranch on Saturday, June 17th. Drop in any time from 10 am to 2 pm. The event will include riding and roping demonstrations, games, activities and crafts for kids, community partners, and much more! This event is free and open to the public.

The Morgan Horse Ranch was established at Point Reyes National Seashore in 1970 as a breeding program for the National Park Service. At its height, park rangers from throughout the service would come to Point Reyes for horsemanship classes, and the ranch maintained a herd of 35 to 40 horses. Morgan horses raised here in the Seashore were used by rangers in parks across for trail patrol, events, Search and Rescue, and packing supplies into the wilderness. Today, the Point Reyes Morgan Horse Ranch has a smaller herd of five horses--most of whom will be making an appearance at the celebration!
