Whitemud Equine Learning Centre Association

Whitemud Equine Learning Centre Association There is a range of programming available for beginners all the way up to jumping lessons.

Whitemud Equine Learning Centre Association (WELCA) provides lesson horses for children, teens, and adults to the Edmonton community and surrounding areas to ride! For more than a decade, the Whitemud Equine Learning Centre Association (WELCA) has been quietly helping to develop people of strength and contributors to the Edmonton community. Through our equine-related activities, we will increase o

ur role in creating a better quality of life for all Edmontonians. WELCA provides easy access for anyone wishing to discover the joys of equine activities, and those who wish to rekindle their love for horses. Our centrally located services help young urban people develop self-confidence and self-esteem, and our horses are instrumental in providing therapeutic services for people living with mental health issues or diseases such as multiple sclerosis. We provide learning opportunities for students of all ages, whether it is veterinarian studies or learning an equine sport. And we help urbanites gain a better understanding of life on a horse farm, right in the heart of the city. We make all this possible using our own herd of horses and some which are loaned to us. WELCA’s learning centre provides programs to approximately 1,000 visitors each week. Our different horse riding programs and instructions are available at various levels to the general public, school groups, and people with disabilities. The completion of our new equine learning centre affords opportunities for more Edmontonians and people from all over the world can come to study horses and learn about their special relationship with people. The new facility has been developed on our existing site on Fox Drive, and is integrated into the beautiful heritage setting of the Keillor Farm. Our new facility allows us to help even more Edmontonians, and allows us to continue our mission of contributing to a stronger community, locally and globally.

Did you know the average horse drinks 5-10 gallons of water a day? That’s the same amount as 40 glasses of water!

To keep our four legged friends hydrated, they have constant access to water in their pens with either a trough or automatic waterer as well as buckets in the stalls that get filled with fresh water each morning!

As the days get hotter, you are sure to see our barn staff team keeping the waters topped up and clean!
