The Lancaster County 4-H Horse VIPS, after lengthy discussion, voted and approved to update the 4-H Horse Dress Code. Lancaster County Horse VIPS voted to require ASTM/SEI-approved helmets for elementary, walk/trot and novice age youth divisions in all riding events and at level testings. ASTM/SEI helmets will also be required for all age divisions of Western Dressage classes. In speed events, ASTM/SEI-approved helmets are STRONGLY recommended, but not required for junior and senior division exhibitors (hats are optional). An ASTM/SEI-approved helmet must be worn in English, Dressage (both English and Western), Driving and Hunter classes (both jumping and non-jumping). Helmets will not be provided. This decision was not made lightly. For more details on the Lancaster County 4-H Horse Dress Code, please visit: https://lancaster.unl.edu/4h/horse/HorseDressCode.pdf. For further questions, please contact the Extension office and ask for Kate at 402-441-7180.
