PBEA History
The Powder
Basin English Riding Club was incorporated in 1988
Bill and Charlotte Combs put
a small ad in the local newspaper looking for anyone interested in
English riding to meet at the local library with the idea of forming a
club. The response was amazing! Bill had shown hunters and jumpers on
the east coast in younger years, and had a couple of good school horses,
the most notable being Hawk, a huge black Appaloosa who had lost an eye
in an accident. Bill and Hawk were excellent teachers, and members met
at his place on the weekends with their horses, to learn, learn, learn
how to get over those huge jumps in a correct manner. We had a ball!
A few members competed in
Casper at the Cowboy State Games in the Combined Training event. We found out that Sheridan also had a great event, the Big Horn
Horse Trials, and we were hooked! When officials of the Cowboy State
Games asked us if we would host an Event in Gillette, we said SURE, if
they would help us build a cross-country course! And it happened, with
the professional help of Sally O'Connor, Robin Hahn, Paul Popiel and,
most recently, Steve Buckman. When the Cowboy State Games moved back to
Casper, we continued to hold our horse trials and were recognized by the
AHSA (now USEF) and USCTA (now USEA). Those names changed with the
times and so did ours, becoming The Powder Basin Equestrian Association
in recent years. We think Gillette is a great place to ride and we
believe in helping and supporting anyone who is interested in the
classical form of riding and training horses. Most importantly, we want
to HAVE FUN with other people who share the same weird and undeniable
fascination with our equine friends.
