Please tell me about Virginia

I can’t believe I’m even here but please tell me about the western performance horse scene in Virginia. Preferably southern Virginia or even northern North Carolina.

I’m currently showing in regionally based cowhorse and ranch horse associations on the west coast. I’d ideally be looking for something similar back there but mostly just want to hear about the options. Is there AQHA/APHA involvement?

Affordability?

Well … she’s a nice girl. Pretty too.
