About Us
Trillium Equestrian (formally Albright Stables) was established in 1980 under the name of Serenity Acres by Jon Albright Sr. and had only one barn and 4 horses. At the time we were located in Appaloosa Plains and enjoyed the small community of equestrian lovers. By 1990 Jon Albright Sr. had 10 horses and had started to compete in show jumping competitions. His granddaughter Kayla would come to visit him every weekend, and loved being around him and the horses. He would give her riding lessons every weekend, and by the time she was 5 she had started her show jumping career.
After Jon Albright Sr. untimely death in 2010, Serenity Acres was left to his granddaughter Kayla Albright. With the help of her twin sister Krista, her brother Kyle, her husband Travis, and their 3 children (Katrina, Katlynn & Tyler) they run the stables. In 2014 Kayla with heavy heart decided to move from Appaloosa Plains and purchased some property in Malakwa, BC, a beautiful little equine community located on the west coast of Canada.
Trillium Equestrian is located on over 100 acres of green pastures surrounded by a mixed forest and mountains that offer peaceful surroundings for our horses and riders. We are a privately owned breeding and training facility, which consists of 3 barns, a show jumping arena, Indoor arena, 2 outdoor training rings, polo field, cross country course, round pens, storage and large pastures. Currently we house approx 40 horses that compete in Show Jumping, Eventing and Polo equestrian events. We are conveniently located close to our Veterinarian, and are approx. 11 km from Sicamous, where our local race track and Racing Barn are located. Our goal is to offer happy, quality, well trained horses, and to provide riders with a fun, safe, educational place to ride.
