45 SKYLINE EVENTING PARK
Skyline Eventing Park, located at the south end of Mt. Pleasant, is Utah’s premier cross country facility offering horse race tracks from introductory skill levels through the preliminary level.
The Skyline Eventing Committee encourages all to come and experience the thrill of eventing during the summer of 2022. Spectators are welcome to attend all of the events and clinics with free admission at Cleone Peterson Eccles Equestrian Center and ConToy Arena, 1000 S. 955 West, Mt. Pleasant.
The sport of eventing is likened to the equestrian triathlon where horses and riders tackle three phases of competition. Dressage demonstrates the training of the horse under saddle. Cross country is a test of endurance and physicality where horses and riders jump solid elements at a high rate of speed. Showjumping shows the grace of the horse through jumping rails and fences.
For more information, visit Skyline Eventing Park’s Facebook page. The 2023 schedule is as follows:
July 14-15: Freedom Fest 2-Phase & Mini Event
Sept. 15-17: The Event at Skyline
