KHC NEWS for YOU

Founded in 1992, with first memberships in 1993.  The Kansas Horse Council provides leadership with tasks such as getting the Livestock Limited Liability statute passed, assisting with the 1996 FEI Endurance ride in KS- monitoring health issues, supporting trail maintenance, promoting new businesses, providing education, and staying aware of legislative topics that could impact equine ownership or activities. Acting as a network resource for your horse related questions from zoning, fence laws, body condition scoring, where to find something, we try to help point you in the right direction.
