Cal Poly Pomona Arabian Horse Show

This is held at the Cal Poly Arabian Horse Center. In 1949, the land was deeded to the W. K. Kellogg Foundation. Later in 1949, Kellogg donated the ranch to the state of California, requiring that the property would be used for educational purposes, the herd of Arabian horses must be maintained, and the horse shows would continue. So the first Sunday of each month during the school season they have an Arabian Horse show.

Facilities at the center include 38 acres (150,000 m2) of pasture, three barns, foaling stalls, a breeding area, a veterinary clinic, a farrier shop, four arenas and a grandstand."
