Two new publications celebrating the scenic and outdoor sports offerings of our area have become available.
Horse Country guide
Virginia is for horse lovers — residents and visitors alike.
A new publication definitely proves the point. “A. Guide to Virginia’s Horse Country” provides page after page of resources for the wide variety of equestrian activities available in the state.
The free guide has information about sport and recreation opportunities for horse lovers, and much more besides.
It covers trail rides, races, shows, sales, events, boarding, breeding, training, camping, riding instruction, equine medical care, riding apparel, tack, publications, organizations, museums and hospitable accommodations for both horses and riders.
In addition, readers are treated to fascinating facts about the four-century history and rich heritage of the horse in Virginia, the substantial impact of the equine industry on the state’s economy, and the work that is under way to ensure a bright future for horses, owners and the businesses which serve them.
