In September 2022, 1/ST and Santa Anita Park entered a multi-year sponsor partnership with the Compton Junior Equestrians.
→ Founded by Randall Hook (aka Randy Savvy), the Compton Junior Equestrians was developed by the Compton Cowboys to serve inner city youth in the hub city of Compton, along with local areas.
→ The Compton Junior Equestrians program was formed in response to the lack of programs available to youth in the community who are at risk for dropping out of school, incarceration, and poverty.
Currently:
Two dozen after-school students are enrolled in the programs.
There are a dozen advanced athletics riders currently enrolled in the Compton Junior Equestrians English Athletics Club.
In 2023, 300+ youth participated in on-site programming, fieldtrips and events.
