Record Books
Record Keeping & Project Reporting are valuable skills taught to members of the Kansas 4-H program. Members are encouraged to keep a Permanent Record of all 4-H and non-4-H experiences and are encouraged to summarize their project experiences on the Kansas 4-H Project Report Form for project recognition. Youth may choose to to use either record keeping option: 1. the fillable PDF Project Report Forms or 2. the online ZBooks software.
Members should turn in their complete record books to their club leaders. Record Books are due in the Extension Office the Second Tuesday in October.
For more helpful information please refer to the Guide to Kansas 4-H Project Recognition and Project Report Form Evaluation Rubric. Video Tutorials are also available by visiting the Kansas State 4-H webpage.
