The Sunnyside Saddle Club will hold their first show of the year this Sunday, April 12th. All shows in the 2025 year were cancelled.
The Rohr Park Horse Arena will be closed to public horse use the entire weekend, Saturday and Sunday, for preparation for the horse show and then the actual show. That will be the protocol for all show weekends.
Here is the schedule for 2026 as shown on their website:

GSDHJA stands for the Greater San Diego Hunter-Jumper Association and H/J SHOW means that it is a horse show for Hunters and Jumpers.
Members must volunteer and attend 3 of 4 hunter/jumper shows to qualify and be entered for a chance to win CASH & PRIZES at our end-of-year banquet.
Here is the parking diagram as posted on the snack shack:
The entire arena parking area is reserved for show participants. "Family and spectators must park in the east lot for guests."
Apparently, the show is cancelled "due to rain"?? hmmm As of Last night, April 10, 2026 the reservation notices were still attached to the arena. This is the 4th time SSC has posted "RESERVATION" notices stating the arena will be closed to the public and failed to show. Tommorrow April 12 "Mostly sunny to partly cloudy with comfortable, mild conditions... high near 70F-71F...Overall, expect pleasant spring weather with moderate temperatures, ideal for outdoor activities..."
