PENDLETON โ People can now see what the Blue Mountain Community College Equine Center will look like. It’s going up just west of the Pendleton Convention Center.
โYou cannot miss it now,โ BMCC President Mark Browning said. โItโs beautiful. The equine center is set for completion in November.โ
In addition to classroom space, the center will house an arena for the collegeโs award-winning rodeo team. The city of Pendleton also has plans to use the facility for winter events. Browning said heโs been impressed by the crewsโ hard work in bringing a vision into a reality.
โItโs taking shape from the outside,โ he said. โThe indoor arena floor is down. Theyโre working on bleachers and some of the electrical inside.โ
