***BISC BACKGROUND ***
Bainbridge Island Saddle
Club is a membership organization whose purpose is to support riders and their horses on Bainbridge Island and the surrounding
areas. BISC owns and maintains a riding facility with easy access to trails in Manzanita Park.
Facilities include: a large arena with covered viewing stand, office, judges tower, cook shack, restrooms, covered
picnic area, a smaller warm-up arena, stalls for day use, and water.
BISC hosts six hunter/jumper schooling
shows each year. The primary emphasis is to provide a fun and supportive environment for members to gain experience
with their horses. Shows are held April through October. No pre-registration is required, although
it is recommended that stalls be reserved in advance.
BISC supports the local equestrian community by making the
faciilities available to Pony Club, sponsoring clinics and schooling shows, and allowing private and semi-private
lessons in the arena. The facility is also available as a rental.
BISC is funded through annual membership
fees, show fees, and donations of time, money, and expertise from members and the community. It is governed by an elected
Board of Directors.
