You may know that much of the Horse Council's income comes from the horse license plate. That little, thin, bendable rectangle... good for cars AND farm trucks.
Sure would like to know who is buying them. I know people who don't own horses who get it. I know horse people who don't get the horse plate. [The 4-H/FFA plate is too tempting..]
We are trying to find out who and where those horse plate owners are. We've petitioned the state transportation to give us a one-time use of the 2010-2011 purchasers so we can send them a survey to find out why they get it..
Is it because they own horses and that's part of their identity? Is it because they live in KY and are proud to be in 'the horse capital of the world'? Do they just think it's a pretty picture?
And do they know who gets the proceeds and what is done with them?
All good questions, and we'd sure like to know.
Why do you have the plate on your car/truck? Or why not?

didn't realize the was a horse plate, but more likely to get one now
Glad to know the word is getting out. We are launching a poster campaign this year (in county clerk's offices) to let everyone know...
We have horse plates on two of our vehicles. The third will get one when it's time to renew. I got the horse plates because the proceeds are supposed to go to the horse council. I also bought the plates because I have horses and I have a horse that looks like the one on the plate. I guess I bought it for all the reasons mentioned.
