🍀 Clover Awards, 4-H Officer Book Contest & Record Book Help 📚

As summer begins to wind down, it's time to start thinking about wrapping up your 4-H year and preparing for some important upcoming deadlines!

✅ Clover Award Applications Due August 28

Members may submit their Clover Award Applications either through zSuite or by completing a paper application. Both digital and paper applications are due to the Lebanon County Extension Office by August 28.

✅ 4-H Officer Books Due August 28

Any Lebanon County 4-H member wishing to be considered for a Lebanon County 4-H Officer Award should submit their officer book to the Extension Office by August 28.

📚 Need Help with Your Livestock or Dairy Record Book?

Join us for a 4-H Record Book Clinic/Open House!

📅 Thursday, August 20
🕜 1:30 PM - 3:30 PM
📍 Lebanon County Extension Office Classroom

Stop by anytime during the clinic to work on your record book, ask questions, and get help finalizing your records.

Don't wait until the last minute! Record books are much easier to complete while project details, expenses, activities, accomplishments, and goals are still fresh in your mind. A little work now can save a lot of stress later!

🍀 As we begin wrapping up another 4-H year, take time to celebrate all that you've accomplished. Whether you've completed a project, shown an animal, served as an officer, participated in club activities, learned a new skill, or reached a personal goal, you should be proud of the growth, learning, and hard work you've invested throughout the year. We look forward to recognizing and celebrating the achievements of our Lebanon County 4-H members in the months ahead! 💚🍀
