STEP - Stewards for Trails, Education and Partnerships promotes equestrian involvement in the restoration, repair and establishment of trails. STEP works to unify horseback riders and other trail users in an effort to build and strengthen relationships between local equestrian communities, the forest service and other land managers for the long-term stewardship of trails. Thanks to a partnership with Tractor Supply Co., AQHA funds groups or organizations to develop community involvement and maintain trails.
