ELCR is celebrating its 20-year anniversary of saving horse lands!

ELCR.org

In 1996, members of the United States Pony Club’s Task Force for the 21st Century identified loss of land and access as the greatest threat to the future of that organization – and to equestrian activities in general. Out of that committee came the founders of ELCR.

Accomplishments
ELCR has made great headway in the last 20 years:
• Advanced the development of nearly 2,020 acres of new horse centers and parks
• Helped dozens of small farm owners work through planning and zoning challenges to keep their horses on their property in urbanizing areas
• Helped protect more than a quarter of a million acres of horse properties and more than 1,860 miles of equestrian and shared use trails in the last five years
• Developed the most comprehensive educational resource library available for horse land protection focusing on six core conservation issue areas accessible at www.elcr.org
• Provided professional one on-one counseling and technical assistance to hundreds of individuals, organizations and communities working on local horse land issues 

Please join us in celebrating and help ELCR continue saving cherished horse lands for the next 20 years by becoming a member or making a donation today!
