Where Pacific Northwest grit meets cowgirl soul

Welcome to the Oregon City Chapter of 40 Something Cowgirls—a sisterhood of women who ride hard, laugh loud, show up for each other, and never quit. Nestled in the heart of the Willamette Valley, our chapter brings together cowgirls of every experience level to enjoy the horses, the trails, the clinics, the competitions, and the camaraderie that make this lifestyle unforgettable.

Here in Oregon City, we honor the spirit of the West with a Pacific Northwest twist—lush forests, winding rivers, and the kind of scenic rides that make you fall in love with the saddle all over again. Whether you’re brand new to horses or a lifelong rider, you’ll find support, encouragement, and a tribe of women who ride beside you through every adventure.

From monthly meet-ups and group trail rides to community involvement and leadership opportunities, our chapter is proud to represent what it truly means to be a 40 Something Cowgirl: bold, confident, capable, and always willing to lend a hand.

Saddle up and join us.
Your next ride—and your next lifelong friendship—starts right here in Oregon City.

    Welcome to the Sisterhood Series Challenge! June's theme: Ride Free

    This year-long experience was created for one simple reason: none of us were meant to do life alone.

    At 40 Something Cowgirls, sisterhood is the heartbeat of who we are. It’s showing up, lifting each other up, caring for ourselves and our communities, and choosing connection over isolation.

    Each month, you’ll be invited into a new, optional challenge focused on encouragement, reflection, service, and growth. No pressure. No perfection. Loud or quiet, public or private — it all counts.

    June Sisterhood Series Challenge – Ride Free

    Summer is here, and this month's challenge is all about reconnecting with the reason we started this journey in the first place.

    Not the ribbons.
    Not the scores.
    Not the endless to-do lists.

    Just you, your horse, and the freedom that comes from being together.

    This month, we invite you to Ride Free.

    Take time to ride outside, explore a new trail, enjoy a quiet sunset ride, or simply spend a few extra moments appreciating the partnership you share with your horse.

    Ask yourself:

    ✨ Where do you feel most free?
    ✨ What part of riding brings you the most joy?
    ✨ How has your horse helped you find freedom, confidence, or peace?

    Photo Prompt of the Month:
    "Where do you feel most free?"

    Share a photo and tell us about the ride, place, or moment that helped you reconnect with the freedom horses bring to your life.

    To participate:

    1️⃣ Register for the June Sisterhood Series Challenge in the Wild Apricot app

    2️⃣ Ride Free—however that looks for you

    3️⃣ Share your photo and story in the 40 Something Cowgirls Facebook Group

    Include your location or tag your chapter when you post.

    Your story may inspire another Cowgirl to saddle up, take a deep breath, and remember why she rides.

    This month's affirmation:

    "I choose freedom.
    I choose joy.
    I make time for what fills my soul."

    We can't wait to see where your adventures take you.

    Photos shared for the challenge may be featured on 40SC social media as we celebrate the journey together.
