roots movement of horse people who felt that an
organization with neither breed affiliation nor private
interest to serve was needed to represent horsemen of
Ohio. By 1974, OHC was officially incorporated and joined
the American Horse Council. There, OHC learned how

Ohio than in all the adjoining states combined. Member of the American Horse Council :
OHC is a member in the American Horse Council (AHC), a
national legislative representative for the horse industry. The mission of the AHC is to promote and protect the
equine industry by representing its interests in Congress
and in federal regulatory agencies on national issues of
importance. The Medina County Chapter of OHC (or MOHC) is dedicated to these ideals and has focused it's efforts to that end toward the promotion, development, maintenance, and enjoyment of the numerous equestrian trails in our Metroparks systems and Cuyahoga Valley National Park, and reaches out to a four county area and beyond. Our moniker "Cuyahoga Valley Trail Riders" springs from this commitment and devotion to our local trails.
