Through an agreement with the Alaska State Fair, funds will be raised for both the FEC and AURORA
Alaska’s Unique Riders Overcoming Risk & Adversity
AURORA’s mission is to develop and promote awareness of equine therapy in Alaska. Services will include: education and riding programs and other activities for the benefit of individuals with physical, psychological, emotional and other disabilities. Additionally providing opportunities for people to get involved in their communities, and promote a positive and safe environment for at-risk youth.
The FEC is located in Palmer at the Alaska State Fairgrounds. Our facility features two 124' X 250' arenas, with a set of bleachers for each and a VIP area between the arenas. Two small schooling areas and one lunging corral are located west of the arenas. The judge's booth has two announcer positions, with a PA system for each. The PA may also be patched to the stable area. Three stables with a total of 102 stalls are available. Most stalls are 10' X 8' with half doors. The 10' X 8' stallion stalls have Dutch doors. Men's and women's restrooms are on site, and each have handicapped accessible units. The parking lot capacity is over 200 vehicles with trailers. This is a perfect site and time for you to utilize an equestrian facility for pleasure or practice!
