Our Mission

Our mission is to promote economic growth and stability for the equestrian community in Southwest Virginia by providing opportunities for all levels of riders.

Our Purpose

The purpose of SWVEP is to provide a cohesive, competitive, rule-abiding, horse show organization to all levels of the hunter/jumper community in Southwest Virginia and to educate members and competitors on good horsemanship, sportsmanship, and riding practices. We plan to promote quality horse shows that will benefit show managers, exhibitors, and horses.
