What is the Mason Neck Horse Coalition (MNHC)?

"There is more to lose than land. A way of life and an understanding of who we are is also at stake. Horsemanship is important to our country's history and lore. It teaches us responsibility and stewardship and how to care for another lifeform. When we protect this, it enriches out communities."

- John F. Turner, 1997 (former Director, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service)
