Recognition...

The VBHSA recognizes approximately 20 Virginia Horse Show Association (VHSA) Associate rated shows each year and tracks points for year-end awards, which are awarded at an annual banquet.

Supporting...

The VBHSA also supports via donation various charitable organizations including local rescue squads.
