HONOR CLUB

• Requirements for honor club were scaled back some this year in an effort to allow clubs a more attainable goal in a year with so many changes.
  
  - The application can be done completely online if the club has electronic files of treasury records and secretary minutes. (If not, they can be dropped off at the Extension Office.)
  
  - Only 6 (instead of 9) of the club activities are required in Part A of the requirements. The scrapbook was changed to an optional activity and placed in Part A. Scrapbooks can be a video, electronic file, or hard copy. (Hard copies can be dropped off at the office.)
  
  - We are requesting some pictures from the past year (September - August) of 4-H Honor clubs in action to be uploaded to the application. It's optional but we would greatly appreciate the opportunity to showcase the clubs in this year's recognition program.

CASH AWARDS

In recent years, our clubs receiving the Honor Club and Helping Hands Awards received a small cash award thanks to the generosity of the Franklin County 4-H Council. Unfortunately, this year, the Council was unable to participate in their major fundraisers. The Pop Stand and the Annual Pork Dinner at the fair were unable to take place. Sadly, this means that their treasury has to cut back on expenses. While they are extremely proud of the work that the honor clubs and helping hands clubs have worked so hard, the Council had to make the tough decision to not give cash awards for Honor Club and Helping Hands this year. The 4-H Council hopes you understand that this decision was made in an effort to be financially responsible.
