Welcome to the South Carolina
Horsemen's Council
Mission Statement
The South Carolina Horsemen’s Council is organized as a
non-stock, non-profit corporation. Its primary purpose is to provide
information and expertise about activities and issues which impact the
common interests of the SC equine community and related industry without
monetary gain or profit to its members or to any private individual.
Through education, communication, and advocacy the Council strives to
favorably represent the views of the equine community to the general
public, the media, government agencies, and elected officials. The
Council encourages related research, disseminates information, and
generally supports the common interests of the equine community and all
segments thereof.

Overview:
The SCHC was formed by equestrians as a
statewide organization and is a member of the American Horse Council.
Regardless of the breed, riding discipline or segment of the horse
community with which the member identifies, the SCHC is working to keep
opportunities open for all. The Board of Directors is composed of
volunteer members as are all committees. SCHC activities and events are
planned and coordinated by member volunteers. The Council is devoted to
guaranteeing a future which continues to include horses, horse sports, and
equine-related businesses in SC.
