About Us
The Bucks County Horse Park is a unique facility dedicated to providing educational opportunities through competition for all equestrians and to the preservation of open space. The 145 acre Park is located in Revere, Pennsylvania, and is a self-sustaining part of the Bucks County Park System operating under a 30-year lease. Bucks County Horse Park, Inc. is the corporate entity which wholly manages and funds the grounds. BCHP is a non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation. The Park is open 365 days a year from sunrise to sunset.
History
Bucks County Horse Park was formed in 1987 and incorporated in 1991 as a private, non-profit organization. The acreage was purchased in January 2004, from Kurt and Barbara Schneider as part of Bucks County’s long term initiative to preserve open space against intense development pressure. The Park depends on membership dues and revenue from over 50 events held each year to support the costs of maintaining the trails and facilities.
