Membership is open to any individual who is interested in the equine industry. Annual dues will be set by the NYSHC Board of Directors and shall accompany each membership application. The goal of the New York State Horse Council is to be New York's Equine Umbrella organization devoted to creating a forum in which horsemen of diverse interests can use their "horsepower" to guarantee a future of horses, horse sports, and horse-related businesses in New York State. We are especially interested in existing organizations joining us in a recognized capacity. The more we band together the stronger our voice will become. Council
Successes:
We facilitate grass roots efforts to educate and influence New York State Legislators regarding the tremendous economic impact provided by the horse industry. These Include:
We also focus on such things as establishing a breed development fund, linkages between racing and non racing people, trail use development & standards, zoning, and the promotion of research into horse health and nutrition. We work in tandem with a number of affiliated organizations to make sure your needs are met. President's Note: Your continued membership support is extremely important to the success of the NYSHC. These funds are utilized to continue our work in the state on your behalf. We are offering Equisure $1,000,000.00 Excess Equine Personal Liability Insurance through Saddle Partners of America. To provide this benefit we are raising the dues to $55.00 per general membership and insurance is included for one adult and all children in a household under 18, a one-page document with the coverage highlights. A Family membership is $75.00 and insurance is included for two adults and all children under 18.
