The Colorado Horse Council is a member-based, non-profit organization. Memberships allow us to pay a full-time lobbyist and keep tabs on all matters concerning the equine industry. Our goal is to advocate for and protect the rights of horse owners in the state of Colorado and your membership fees help do that.

The four membership types offered allow you to choose the one best for you, whether you're an individual or part of a family, a club, organization, business, ranch, etc. The benefits offered with each membership varies. Two memberships types include Personal Excess Liability Insurance, while three types offer voting privileges at our Annual Meeting. All four memberships provide grounds admission tickets to our annual Rocky Mountain Horse Expo, as well as providing the peace of mind knowing we are looking out and fighting for your best interests in the equine industry.
