About NAPEC
The North American Police Equestrian Council Inc. (NAPEC, Inc.) was started in 1983 by Officer Ralph Pfister, US Park Police; Mike Wynnyk, Maryland-National Capital Park Police Prince George’s County; Alex Wynnyk, US Park Police; and Steve Johnson, retired US Park Police, as the Police Equestrian Competition (P.E.C.). We wanted to demonstrate what we believe the Mounted Police Officer was called on to do every day, and to emphasize the trust between an Officer and their mount. Through this, NAPEC, Inc. has shown the time Officers have spent on this valuable training is of benefit to their respective departments.
NAPEC, Inc. is a 501 (c) (7) organization.
