Complete your 4-H project!

4-H members: Did you manage to complete all your 4-H projects or are there some you would still like to complete?

Or were you not able to complete any at all?

Fair is NOT the only time to complete your 4-H project, it is just one chance. You may complete any project using the handbook guidelines and either bring it to Renate or your club leader. Let your leader know you would like to complete the project, and the leader will contact the Extension office so we can mark you down for completion for the project.

And by the way, there is no penalty for NOT completing projects but if you would like to feel a great sense of accomplishment, Renate encourages completion of as many projects as the member feels comfortable with doing.

The deadline to complete for 2011 is August 31.

This policy applies to Explorers and regular age 4-H’ers.

4-H members in grades 3-12th, remember to bring your My Record of Achievement and the Perry Co. 4-H Survey (PDF version or Word) to project check in Sunday, July 10. Those two pieces of information plus $1 will get you a season fair pass! Leaders, your fair passes will be available there too.

Members, make sure you keep one  My Record of Achievement for your records as well!

Project check in will be here before you know it. Remember, if you don't complete a project in time for the fair, you can still complete after the fair! Contact Renate or your leader once you've completed your project so they can see it and mark it down as complete. This deadline is 4:00 p.m. August 31.

You are entitled to a fair premium and ribbons if you complete at the fair. Members and Explorers all receive money for exhibiting! Be sure to pick your money up Friday, July 15 after 6:00 p.m.
