Event at Archer

Eventing could be termed an "equestrian triathlon." It involves working with a horse both on the flat and over fences. The three phases are: dressage, endurance (or cross-country), and show jumping. Over the centuries it has developed from the test of the ideal military charger into an Olympic Sport. Eventing has now evolved into an exciting sport... attracting interest from all levels and ages of sports enthusiasts, from weekend hobby riders to professional international stars. The idea for the Archer Eventing Park was conceived by Allison Murphy, an active eventing competitor based in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Allison reached out to local eventing community groups in Wyoming and Northern Colorado to share her idea for a local eventing course and found tremendous need and support for a public eventing venue for Northern Colorado and Southeastern Wyoming. The Archer Eventing Park is set on approximately 60 acres of land leased from Laramie County just east of Cheyenne, Wyoming. The Laramie County Commissioners have graciously made this land available to the local eventing community for the design and build of a world class cross country course. The Event at Archer utilizes the fairgrounds 2 large outdoor arenas, 50+/- covered stalls, 48 +/- uncovered stalls. The park has ample trailer and RV parking and hookups. Stabling at Archer is limited to about 150 horses however there are several local overflow facilities that support additional RV, Camper Hookups and Stalls.Read More
