IMPORTANT NEW
GROUND RULE!!!! Effective immediately!
34. In addition to the
rule on attire outlined in the NHSRA rule book
the following will apply at all LHSRA Rodeos. If
a High School and Jr. High Division Rodeo is
held the same weekend it will be considered one
(1) event and all members of LHSRA attending or
contesting must be in full western attire at all
times with number displayed on back. If a High
School Rodeo is held as a single event, Jr. High
Division Members will not be required to comply
to the LHSRA dress code and must not present
their numbers as a means of free entry into the
rodeo. If you choose to gain free admission you
must be in full western attire and remain in
such during the entire event. This applies to
high school members who attend a Jr. High
Division Rodeo that is held as a single event.
When attending or contesting at the LHSRA Finals
Rodeo, both High School and Jr. High Division
you must comply to the dress code as stated
above. The finals will be considered one (1)
event when they are held back to back. This
ground rule will be enforced by any current
board member of the LHSRA. If not in compliance
as required, immediate disqualification can
occur or the non-compliance by said member can
be brought to the Board of Directors for
sanctions that the board deems appropriate for
the infraction. (Added November 2011 ).
