VOLUNTEER AWARDS

 

It’s that time of year again to recognize the countless hours of hard work and dedication that so many of the 4H volunteers put in through

out the year. Please take a moment to nominate the 4H volunteer who you feel has done an outstanding job for the 4H program. Choose

the category that best fits the volunteer’s area of excellence or propose your own category. 4H members, parents, leaders, and volunteers

are all encouraged to nominate the volunteer who has made a difference in the 4H programs for RI. Write down all the reasons your

nominee should be selected.  Some suggested categories are listed below.

 

Outstanding volunteer with:

 

A 4-H community club program (someone who has done a great job recruiting volunteers and members,

and coordinating projects, activities and events, for a club encompassing a particular area)

 

A 4-H after school program

 

Citizenship and community service programs

 

Animal science programs

 

A program promoting diversity

 

A youth skills development program (For example, a 4-H volunteer who has a big impact on young people,

training them in a particular project, like career exploration or public speaking)

 

A teen leadership development program

 

An innovative 4-H program (new approach to 4-H)

 

An ability to bring new resources to 4-H (can be someone from outside of 4-H)

 

If you cannot find a category to fit your nominee just give all the reasons why this person should be chosen as an outstanding volunteer.  Send your nomination to Heidi Wright State 4-H Office, Peckham Farm, URI, Kingston, RI 02881 or email heidiw@etal.uri.edu by December 1, 2005. The outstanding volunteers will be honored at the 4H Members and Volunteers Awards Banquet in January.
