As one 4-H year starts, another comes to a close. We are putting the final touches on our 2014-2015 4-H year, and will finish it with our annual 4-H Achievement Night! Achievement Night will be October 6, 2015 in the Theater at the James Lee Community Center in Falls Church, VA.

In order to give out some awards, we need your help! Read the descriptions of the awards and nominate 4-H’ers & volunteers you feel are worthy of the award. There are also a few awards that individual 4-H’ers can qualify for via their project book or an application—these are the Honor Awards, Leadership and Citizenship awards, and project medals.

All nominations must be submitted by a non-family member.
All nominations and honor award applications are due to the Extension office September 18.
