Fraser Valley Hunt

Landowners, horse and hound enthusiasts, we can bring the Hunt to you!

Through the fall and winter months the Fraser Valley Hunt Club meets every Saturday

at various private farms and estates ranging from Lynden Washington to Merritt to

Pemberton.

We are looking to expand our territory to allow the hunt to continue and to allow more people to enjoy the sport and the spectacle. While open farm fields are traditional, any range land, trail or riverbank could be appropriate for a 2-3 hour ‘foxless’ drag hunt.

We’d put up and take down portable jumps, and would provide a free pass for you to join us on the day.

We are appropriately insured for riding on private land, and ensure that all new/novice riders go out with a slower paced group and leader. All jumps are optional and Western riders are welcome. Spectators and photography buffs often follow the hunt, and all convene for ‘breakfast’ at the end of the day.

If you think you might have appropriate territory, please contact Mr. Aar Koeman, 604-835-0845, or send us a message from our website, fraservalleyhunt.com.

NOT BOURBON PASSES

By CTHS BC • January 10, 2026

Not Bourbon (Not Impossible – Bourbon Belle) passed away on December 28, 2025, at the age of 20. Bred and owned by Charles Fipke and trained by Roger Attfield, Not Bourbon was an exceptional racehorse whose accomplishments earned him a place in Canadian racing history. During his career on the track, Not Bourbon captured some of the nation’s most prestigious races, including the Queen’s Plate, Plate Trial, Queenston Stakes, and Overskate Stakes. As a two-year-old, he showed early promise by winning the Bull Page Stakes and setting a track record for six furlongs at Woodbine. Over the course of three racing seasons, Not Bourbon earned more than one million dollars, and his outstanding three-year-old campaign was recognized with a Sovereign Award. Retired to stud, Not Bourbon went on to become a champion sire in Ontario, further cementing his legacy in the breeding shed. In 2020, he relocated to British Columbia, standing his first season at Emerald Acres in Aldergrove, before moving to Flying Horse Farm in West Kelowna, where he continued to make a meaningful contribution to the provincial breeding industry. Not Bourbon will be remembered for his talent as a racehorse and his contributions to breeding in both Ontario and British Columbia.
