The Wood County Chapter of the Ohio Horsemen's Council is a group of horse people who are dedicated to serving the equine community.  The purpose of the OHC is to promote the interest of the entire horse industry in Ohio; through political awareness and public information, and by developing a close working relationship among individuals and organizations who recognize the importance of the horse industry to the social and economic well being of Ohio.

The OHC was started in 1972 as a grass roots movement of horse people who felt that an organization that had no breed affiliation or private interests to serve was needed to represent united horsemen of Ohio.  We also seek to improve horse show facilities at the local, county and state fair level.  We are also developing new equine competitive contests.  We sponsor trail rides and help maintain established trails, as well as create new ones.  We actively support community charities.

As a group, the OHC supports the equine lifestyles.  We buy horses, feed, trailers, trucks, tack, training and veterinarian services; thereby supporting local horse related businesses.

We make a difference-a big difference.
