News & Alerts

The Connecticut Horse Council's aim is to keep the horsemen in Connecticut updated  with current news and  special alerts pertaining to the horse industry, some having little impact and others showing a potential for  tremendous impact on our industry.  Uniting together is the only way to protect our industry and being aware is the first step in achieving that goal.
