Responsibility
Caring for a horse and preparing to ride teach young people that trust is earned through steady work.
Our storyNorth Fort Myers
Deep roots.
New beginnings.
The Lee County Posse Arena was founded in 1960 by a dedicated group of local men and women. What began with a few members has grown into a nonprofit community with hundreds of members.
For generations, this has been a place for Friday night jackpots, the Cracker Day Rodeo, youth rodeo and performances by local equestrian clubs. Many events welcome spectators free of charge, keeping the arena open to families across Lee County.
Life at the arena
Built by generations. Carried by the next.
What we pass onTraditional values
Good ground for
growing up.
Sportsmanship
The Junior Posse is built around respect for others, fair play and learning to compete with character.
Discipline
A skilled rider and a well-trained horse are the result of dedication, patience and time well spent.
Some things never go out of style. Families showing up. Neighbors lending a hand. Young people learning to follow through. Let’s give that tradition a place to keep growing.
