No Land, No Horse: Equine Land Conservation Resource Seeks Support in Crowd Funding Campaign
The Equine Land Conservation Resource (ELCR) is seeking support for its crowd funding campaign on Indiegogo.comto support the development of a Planning and Zoning Guide for Horse Friendly Communities.
From the ELCR:
"Tomorrow, a boarding stable will close its doors and be converted to residences. Next week, a competition venue or horse trail will exclude horseback riding. Next month, hay fields will become a shopping center.
Horses are disappearing from our cities and suburbs. Access to horses and the opportunity to ride is being lost from the everyday lives of millions of people, especially children in cities & suburbs.
Imagine a generation that will not have the ability to pet, ride or see a real horse. The possibility is becoming more real every day.
That’s why it really does “take a village” to effectively plan for horses in our local communities.
With your help, ELCR can help ensure the future of horses in your city or town through the development of a Planning for Horses in Your Community Toolkit."
