Equestrian Trails Inc. was established as a nonprofit corporation in 1944 with the Charter to be "Dedicated to the Acquisition and Preservation of Trails, Good Horsemanship, and Equine Legislation." The National Office of E.T.I. is based in Sylmar, California with Chapters (Corrals) throughout the State. E.T.I.'s combined membership fights a never-ending battle to keep our trails and add more equestrian facilities.
The History of E.T.I. During World War II, horsemen from Long Beach, CA joined together to patrol the power lines, to guard public property, and in the event of an enemy attack, to help secure the safety of the Long Beach area. They and their horses were trained by the Long Beach Police Department and worked under the police department’s direct supervision. Every night for the duration of the war they patrolled in all kinds of weather in places reachable only on horseback. They did an important job well and contributed a vital service to their community and country. When the end of the war was in sight, these horsemen wanted to continue to be of service, to become organized and be prepared in case they were needed again. No trails existed where they patrolled, so they discussed the establishment of permanent trails for horsemen and hikers throughout scenic California. If enough people were interested, they decided, permanent trails might be established. Fitting perfectly into the post-war programs involving recreation, Equestrian Trails was born on July 21, 1944. It was incorporated in 1945 as a non-profit organization dedicated to equine legislation, good horsemanship and the acquisition and preservation of riding and hiking trails throughout California.
