Though we could not be in-person in Annapolis for Maryland Horse Industry Day this year due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we are proud that Marylanders are able to benefit from the diverse community that horses provide. Horses offer access to a healthy lifestyle, with lots of fresh air and exercise, and for many much needed emotional and therapeutic support.
Thanks to your ongoing support, significant horse industry projects are well underway such as:
- Maryland 5 Star at Fair Hill
- New MD Horse Library & Education Center
- Rebirth of Laurel/Pimlico racetracks
- Notable increase in licensed riding facilities
Please enjoy these photos from the Maryland Horse Industry!
