Vice President’s Message Saddle Up and Give Back: The Joy and Impact of Volunteering at Equestrian Events There’s something special about the energy of an equestrian event—the rhythmic clip-clop of hooves, the focused chaos in the warm-up ring, the burst of applause as a rider and horse clear the final fence or nail a perfect test. Behind every smooth-running show, clinic, or schooling day is a team of dedicated volunteers who help make the magic happen. If you’ve ever wondered whether your time would make a difference, the answer is a resounding yes! Volunteering isn’t just helpful—it’s essential, rewarding, and surprisingly fun. Why Volunteering Matters Equestrian organizations, like the ESDCTA, thrive on community support. Entry fees and sponsorships cover a lot, but they rarely stretch far enough to staff every ring, manage every gate, or keep the grounds running smoothly. Volunteers fill those gaps. From scribing for a judge to setting jumps, checking in competitors, or simply directing traffic in the parking lot, each role keeps the event safe, efficient, and enjoyable for everyone. Your presence also strengthens the organization itself. Consistent volunteer support allows clubs like ESDCTA to host more events, offer educational programs, maintain facilities, and keep costs accessible for riders of all levels. When members pitch in, the burden doesn’t fall on the same small group of organizers year after year. That shared effort builds resilience and keeps the sport welcoming for the next generation of horse lovers. The Unexpected Fun Factor Volunteering often feels less like “work” and more like being part of the action. You get a front-row seat to the competition without the pressure of competing yourself. You meet riders, trainers, and fellow horse people you might never otherwise encounter. Conversations over the in-gate or while dragging a ring can turn into lasting friendships. Many volunteers discover new skills—learning the intricacies of dressage scoring, mastering course design basics, or simply becoming more confident around a busy showgrounds. There’s also the quiet satisfaction of watching a nervous junior rider settle because the warm-up ring ran on time, or seeing a horse and rider pair succeed because the footing was properly maintained. Those small contributions create big moments.

And let’s be honest: few things beat the camaraderie of a post-event pizza run or the shared laugh when a mischievous pony decides the volunteer tent looks like a good place to visit. How You Can Get Involved You don’t need to be an expert rider or own a horse to help. Events need people of all experience levels and abilities. Common roles include: • Gatekeeping and warm-up ring monitoring • Scribing or timing • Jump crew or course setting • Check-in and scoring assistance • Grounds and parking support • Hospitality and concessions Experienced volunteers can help provide a quick orientation, and many roles can be done in a few-hour shifts so you can still enjoy parts of the day as a spectator. If you’re new, pairing with an experienced volunteer is a great way to learn the ropes. Supporting the Organization Beyond Event Day Volunteering at shows is powerful, but support can take many forms. Serving on one of our many committees, helping with membership drives, assisting at educational clinics, or simply spreading the word about ESDCTA upcoming events all contribute to a healthier, more vibrant equestrian community. Ready to Join In? The next time an ESDCTA event call for volunteers lands in your inbox or appears on the club’s social media, consider saying yes. You’ll help create memorable experiences for riders and spectators, strengthen the organization you care about, and likely walk away with new friends, fresh insights, and a sense of belonging that only comes from being part of the team. Saddle up, show up, and give back. The horses—and the people who love them—will thank you. Vice President

Horse Treats By Meredith Rogers
Our youth members probably look forward to another birthday because it means another day closer to leaving for college or being able to drive. But for many of us, another birthday just means more aches and pains. However, even those of us with more candles on our cake than we want to count should not despair because there are riders who have done amazing things well into their senior years. Take Hilda “Lorna” Johnstone, the oldest female Olympian, who turned 70 years of age three days previously competed as part of the British Equestrian team at the 1972 Munich Olympics. She also competed in the 1956 (Stokholm) and the 1968 (Mexico City) Olympic Games, with the latter being where at age 66, she helped Great Britain claim 5th place in the Mixed Dressage Team event. In the 1956 Olympics her teammate, Lilian Williams was 61 years old. Ms. Johnstone continued to compete in dressage into her eighties, and died at the age of 87 years. Then there is Hiroshi Hoketsu who competed at the age of 71 in the 2012 London Olympics in dressage, finishing in 40th place. He also competed in the 2008 Beijing Olympics, and before that he qualified for the 1988 Seoul Olympics but his horse had to be quarantined, so he was unable to compete. His first Olympics was the 1964 Tokyo games and the 44 years between 1964 and 2008 represent the longest time between games of any athlete. Mr. Hoketsu is the oldest Olympian to compete for Japan (at 71 years and 134 days) and is the third oldest Olympian ever to compete, behind shooter Oscar Swahn of Sweden who competed at the age of 72 at the 1920 Antwerp Olympics and Arthur von Pongracz who competed for Austria at the age of 72 in dressage in the 1936 Berlin Olympics. These riders are an inspiration to all of us to continue pursuing our passion with horses as long as we are able.

Amateur Dilemma By Meredith Rogers
This winter was hard. I was hoping for an easy summer but nope. There’s been a lot of rain and numerous above 90 degree hot and humid days. The weather thwarted some of my horse show plans. I scratched classes because of rain and an entire show because of the heat. I have such mixed feelings about scratching, mainly negative. On the positive side, I knew it was the right thing to do for my horse. On the negative side, I feel so guilty for wasting all that money on classes/shows I didn’t participate in. I also doubt myself. Maybe I was just being a wimp – other people showed on those days. I actually should have scratched another class because the footing was so bad due to the ring being flooded. I didn’t and felt guilty about it for weeks. In addition to the wasted money, I was aiming for a USDF year-end award, which was put in jeopardy due to the lost scores. For USDF Horse of the Year and All-Breed awards you need 8 scores. To me, that’s crazy. We are fortunate to live where there’s a show just about every weekend, but what about those dressage deserts where there’s only 2 shows within a 6-hour drive? One lost shoe or one severe storm and your whole season can be over. The system is not fair, so is getting one of those coveted year-end awards really meaningful? I don’t know but it was my goal. Having goals is important for growth and that’s really my end game – being better tomorrow than I was today. I have to get better at putting it all in perspective. I have a horse I love (and who loves me). I am learning and improving (albeit at a slower pace than I want). Life is good.

Championships Here We Come! By Paige Zimmerman
It’s getting close to the end of the show season, and for many of us, Championship season is fast approaching. Whether you are shooting for USDF Regional Championships, USDF Breeder’s Championships (at Dressage at Devon), CBLM Championships (down south in North Carolina this year), ESDCTA Championships, LVDA Championships, NPASS Championships, or a mixture of these, it’s certainly an exciting time of year for both us and the horses. Lately I’ve been finding myself reflecting on some things that my mental coach/ performance psychologist told me a few years ago when I was preparing to go to Regionals in 2024. I haven’t had the chance to speak with her lately, but her words still ring true, and they have been helpful to remember them.

COLLECTIVE REMARKS
1. You have a limited “energy battery” every day, especially throughout big, multi-day shows. Do not expend extra energy doing things that don’t require that energy. Conserve when you can, so that when it’s time to be “on,” you have the battery to spare. For example, things such as feeding, braiding, and preparing the trailer can all be done methodically and in a relaxed way that doesn’t feel hurried or frantic. Then once it’s actually time to ride, you will be relaxed and have the energy to perform since you haven’t spent all day rushing around and panicking about your preparation. Take the time to do things in a relaxed way whenever possible. You don’t want to crash in the moment when everything counts. 2. Have a mantra. Mine is usually related to whatever Olivia is telling me in the weeks leading up to regionals, and right now it is to make sure the horse is loose on both sides and to check that he’s not stuck in his right shoulder. This year, I’m not nervous for Regionals like I have been in the past, but last time I went my mantra was to just breathe! 3. Write in a journal. My mental coach always suggested journaling to me, and I was never really into it until I started doing it every day. It has helped me to get my thoughts out on paper, and sometimes I come up with solutions to problems or new plans as I write. It is also helpful at the end of each show day, since I can reflect on what went well and what I had the power to change for next time. 4. Set your goals ahead of time, and once it’s all over, if you have accomplished around ~50% of your pre-set goals, then you are setting them correctly! If you accomplish 100% of them, then perhaps the goals were all a bit too easily attainable. If you accomplish none of them, then they are probably too challenging. It’s good to have a mixture of “stretch” goals and “easy” goals: whether they be relating to your actual performance, how you manage your mental state, how you care for your horse, and so on. It’s good to write these down and think of how to best prepare yourself to accomplish them. 5. Pressure is a privilege. Ultimately the experience of showing at a championship is something that not everyone gets to do, and we should do our best to savor the experience and enjoy it as much as possible, as well as set ourselves up for success as best we can. Good luck to everyone competing at a championship show this fall and to everyone who is still closing out their show season! I hope all goes well, and look forward to seeing everyone at the shows I plan on attending as well.

Secretary Wengryn Sets Import Requirements to Protect New Jersey Livestock from New World Screwworm
Effective immediately, livestock, dogs, cats, and exotic pets entering New Jersey from affected state must meet new importation requirements (TRENTON) The New Jersey Department of Agriculture (NJDA), with consultation and agreement from the New Jersey Department of Health (NJDOH), has implemented specific requirements for animals being transported from a New World Screwworm (NWS) affected state into New Jersey, effective immediately. New World screwworm (NWS), Cochliomyia hominivorax, is a species of fly found throughout portions of North, Central, and South America and the Caribbean. NWS is particularly devastating because the fly larvae burrow and feed on living tissue, often causing severe, sometimes fatal damage to animals. NWS can infest any warmblooded animal, including livestock, companion animals, wildlife, birds, and humans. To safeguard animals and protect public health, NJDA and NJDOH have instituted new movement requirements and restrictions for domestic animals that must be met prior to movement into New Jersey. Domestic animals include all livestock, poultry, cats, dogs, and exotic pets. Since the announcement of an NWS detection in Texas on June 3, the NJDA has been monitoring the case reports and considering potential impacts to New Jersey animal owners. While the risk to New Jersey remains low, the confirmation of NWS in the US and continued new detections in Texas prove that this will be an ongoing issue. Movement of animals from impacted areas is a potential source of NWS introduction into New Jersey. The confirmed cases, in Texas and New Mexico, have involved livestock and canine species. There have been no cases of NWS detected in New Jersey or surrounding states. “Protecting New Jersey from this dangerous insect is the purpose of the animal movement and restrictions we are putting in place,” said Ed Wengryn New Jersey Secretary of Agriculture. “The larvae feed on the living flesh of infected animals, so it is a risk to livestock, domestic pets, and humans. The goal of the regulations is to ensure animals coming to New Jersey from infected states are not bringing the fly or larvae with them.” “The risk to New Jerseyans from New World Screwworm is very low. But public health means acting before a threat arrives, not after,” said Dr. Raynard E. Washington, New Jersey’s health commissioner. “We know animal health, environmental health, and human health are deeply interconnected. These new movement requirements are a smart, proactive step to keep people and livestock safe in our state.” COLLECTIVE REMARKS

News from Outside the Ring High Performance Eventing Change at the Top Have big eventing dreams? The USEF Eventing Development Program is what you need to look into. It’s the USEF program designed to bring the best and brightest to the epitome of the sport. Horse and rider combinations that have achieved the required qualifying scores get invited to join and will receive support (including financial) and guidance on their eventing journey, with opportunities to participate in training sessions with top riders and trainers. Now it has a new leader in 7-time Olympian Phillip Dutton, who has just been appointed Advisor. He is excited to help up-and-coming talent develop into the world class athletes he knows they can be, while he continues with his own riding career. Here’s to a bright future for USA Eventing.
Rabies Alert It’s not usually something that you think about being related to horses, but a horse in South Carolina tested positive for rabies. Thirteen people were exposed to the horse. The horse was only 1 of 3 animals that contracted the disease that week, the other two animals being the more expected reservoirs of a skunk and a racoon. South Carolina had 73 cases this year of animals with confirmed rabies. New Jersey has had 75 cases so far this year, and Pennsylvania has had 256 cases; none in horses. Interesting fact, cats have accounted for 93% of the domestic animal cases in New Jersey since 1989.
State Fair Tragedy Something else you normally don’t think too much about is your horse getting electrocuted because we are very careful to keep fan cords and other wires away from our steeds. However, a 5-year-old Saddlebred (named Mister Spots) died when he stepped on an electrified metal crossbar of the temporary stable he was housed in for the Kentucky State Fair. Authorities think that a faulty power cable was likely the cause. Although the power cable was not supplied by the fairgrounds, inspectors are going over the entire Kentucky Exposition Center to make sure everyone is safe.

Sports-Psychology: Introduction A USDF Virtual Education Short Course https://www.usdf.org/education/university/kb/course.asp?ID=1537 by Ellen Broadhurst A recent horse show experience sent me to the USDF Virtual Education library looking for insight. My horse, Max, surprised me at a dressage show by being more electric and explosive than usual, and I was quite unexpectedly afraid. I have terrific trainers and a wonderfully supportive barn group, so the situation was managed. By the time we were ready to warm up for our actual classes, both Max and I had returned to a place of equilibrium and had a positive experience. But, I was surprised by my fearful reaction to my horse's behavior and disappointed in myself for not being braver. All of which sent me to the USDF Education website, where I found the online short course, Introduction to Sports Psychology. The course is a mixed-media collection of articles, video and audio presentations, followed by a short quiz. It is not an intensive course in sports psychology, nor does it pretend to be. Rather, it serves as an introduction to the subject and, perhaps more importantly, for me a first step in thinking about the mental side of riding. The material is not new, dating back to 2011, and sports psychology has evolved since then. Still, I found the basic constructs remarkably easy to digest and relevant. I was able to very quickly understand that the feelings I was having were well within normal bounds, as well as manageable for the future. 16

COLLECTIVE REMARKS
One of the most interesting pieces in the collection is Colleen Scott’s The Fear Factor, originally published in USDF Connection in November 2011. Scott interviewed 3 professionals: equestrian sports psychologist Janet Sasson Edget, PsyD; clinical and sports psychologist Timmie A. Pollock, PhD; and Ann Reilly, MEd, PhD. The article makes an important distinction between 2 kinds of fear. There is physical fear: I might get hurt. And there is mental or emotional fear: I might fail, disappoint someone, or look foolish or incompetent. What we commonly call show nerves or performance anxiety generally falls into the second category. But as equestrians, our reality is that physical fear isn’t necessarily irrational. We participate in a sport in which a thousand-pound flight animal can occasionally do something completely unexpected. The physiological response to perceived threat is familiar to most riders. Adrenaline increases, heart rate rises, breathing becomes shallow, muscles tighten, and our horses responded with a wide eyed equally physiological response of, “Hey, seems like something isn’t right!” But, as anyone who shows understands, a little bit of anxiety can be a positive thing, oftentimes producing a more forward performance. This leads to one of the most useful ideas in the course, which is, perhaps the goal isn’t to get rid of anxiety, but to learn to listen to it. If you’re worried that your horse might spook or bolt, telling yourself, He won’t spook isn’t particularly useful. He might. A more productive question is: What tools do I need if he does? Can I ride through the spook? Do I have an emergency plan? Have I practiced situations that might make me uncomfortable? Am I actually prepared? And, importantly, if you are not prepared, the cross section of anxiety and fear might be informing you that coming back to try again another day is the wisest course of action. In other words, fear can be information. That idea carries through another selection in the course, Jennifer O. Bryant’s The Inner Game of Dressage, which explores how doubts, fears and distractions can derail performance. Sports psychologists work with athletes to identify the mental barriers interfering with performance and then develop strategies to address them. The goal isn’t simply to “think positively.” It’s to develop mental skills just as deliberately as we develop physical ones.
yourmagazine COLLECTIVE REMARKS

That distinction is even more clearly delineated in Dr. Jenny Susser’s presentation, The Difference Between Fear and Anxiety, from the 2011 USDF Convention. Susser makes the distinction between fear and anxiety in a way that I found particularly helpful. Fear is an emotional response to a threat that is happening now, while anxiety is associated with a perceived future threat, something we are anticipating, imagining or worrying about. And she comes back to that point about a little bit of fear isn’t necessarily a bad thing. A little fear is useful. It is part of our biological survival system. The physiological changes that accompany fear mentioned above prepare us for action. A little bit of anxiety can translate into energy that can be a very good thing. The challenge, for both horse and rider, is learning to control and channel that energy rather than be controlled by it. That may be one of the most useful ways to think about performance anxiety. The goal isn’t necessarily to walk into the show ring feeling completely calm. The goal is to be able to ride effectively while experiencing the physical and emotional sensations that come with competition. There is, however, one very important caveat in dealing with fear: safety comes first. The course is clear that working on fear should never mean deliberately taking unnecessary risks. If you are afraid of your horse spooking, your solution isn’t to put yourself into increasingly dangerous situations until you’re no longer afraid. Good training gives you appropriate tools, appropriate preparation and an appropriate level of challenge. So, did this short course help me with my personal riding concerns? Yes, with a qualification. Its greatest value was as an introduction. Because the material is largely from 2011, I wouldn’t consider it a current or comprehensive education in sports psychology. But it gave me the vocabulary for thinking about problems riders often treat as personal shortcomings: nerves, fear, distraction, negative self-talk and loss of confidence. And it sent me looking for what has come since. There are excellent resources specifically written for equestrians. Inga Wolframm’s Perfect Mind, Perfect Ride: Sport Psychology for Successful Riding, published in 2015, combines sport and performance psychology research with real-life examples and 18

practical exercises. Wolframm has a PhD focused on psychological traits and states in equestrian riders and is an accredited sport psychologist who works with riders from grassroots through international competition. Another resource that continues to have considerable life well beyond its original publication is Tonya Johnston’s Inside Your Ride: Mental Skills for Being Happy and Successful with Your Horse. Johnston is a mental skills coach with a master’s degree in sport psychology who specializes in equestrian athletes. Her approach is highly practical, addressing anxiety, visualization, goal setting, staying in the moment and developing consistent preparation routines. She continues to work with riders and teams and produces Inside Your Ride podcasts and other current content. My overall takeaway was that the USDF Introduction to Sports Psychology course won’t make you a mentally tougher rider in an hour. But it may make you curious about what mental toughness actually means. And that’s a worthwhile place to start. After all, we wouldn’t expect our horses to master a new skill after hearing about it once. Perhaps we shouldn’t expect that of ourselves, either.
