Welcome to the Wellsville Frontier Days, Inc. website.

We are a non-profit horse back riding club established in 1961 and located in northern York County.

We are located at 75 Carroll Street, Wellsville, PA 17365, just off of Rte. 74 between Dover and Dillsburg.  PLEASE NOTE: All trailers please enter club grounds off of Lisburn Road.

So, if you're up for a day of excitement and fun, come on out to Wellsville and see what it's all about.  We have a Memorial Day and a Labor Day Rodeo. 

We have bleachers or you could bring lawn chairs and blankets and lounge on our nice grass bank. There is a calf scramble before steer wrestling for all the kids 12 and under. If you don't know what that is then you'll have to bring the kids along and find out.

Bring your appetites along with you, we have multiple food vendors on site to tantalize your taste buds.  So come early to get a good spot.
