Did you do a lot in one specific area this year, and you’d really like to create a 4-H Project Record about it? Now’s the time to start a 4-H Project Record!

4-H Project Records are a summary about a project area over a one year span where you learned and gained new skills within your 4-H work, as well as in other parts of your life.

Project Records for the project year 2023 are due to the Henderson County office by 5:00 p.m. on Monday, January 8, 2024.

Why do a 4-H Project Record? 

  • Over a period of years, your records will show how you have grown.
  • The information on your 4-H records will be useful as you fill out other forms in your life, such as 4-H portfolios, resumes, job applications, and college applications.
  • Helps a youth set and attain certain set goals.
  • Monetary rewards $50 -up depending on if you place with your project record or portfolio.

Information at a glance:

  • Project Records can be typed or written neatly by hand. There are instructions on the forms that explain how to format your project record. Make sure you carefully read the directions and follow them closely.
  • Listing your community service, citizenship, and leadership activities are all important parts of 4-H! You can list activities that you have done as a Club, County, individually, or with an outside organization.
  • Only two project record books can advance to District from one individual in one year.
  • Break up the sections to complete over time rather then all in one sitting.
  • Reach out to your Club leaders/fellow members to see if they have suggestions or records for community service, citizenship, and leadership completion over the year.
