Any questions or problems with accessing the files, please contact Wendy Dilworth at the Baltimore County 4-H Office - wendydil.edu or 410-887-8090.
Youth Project Records, Record Books provide 4-Hers with opportunities to learn to keep records, evaluate their past accomplishments, and organize their thoughts.
Youth are recognized for goal achievements, their leadership was given to local club or county/city activities, and community service projects they have been involved in.
The Maryland 4-H Program is proud to offer senior 4-H members the opportunity to participate in Leadership Trips at the National Level. All enrolled and dues-paying club members ages 14-18 (as of January 1st, the year the trip takes place) from all counties and Baltimore City are eligible to submit an application and portfolio packet (see instructions below) for any of the following national leadership trips.
To be considered for a Leadership Trip, a 4-H member must complete a portfolio package including an application, 4-H resume, essay, and interview.
To see what good record book keeping looks like, these sample files have been created. Take a look so you can create your best record book! Any questions or problems with accessing the files, please contact Wendy Dilworth at the Baltimore County 4-H Office - wendydil.edu or 410-887-8090.

4-H Volunteers are a key component of the 4-H program, which focuses on citizenship, leadership, and life skills development using a "learn-by-doing" educational model.
With each volunteer comes knowledge, experiences, and skills taught to 4-H youth and shared with the 4-H program. No matter your background or expertise, you can join the 4-H community.
As a parent, a project leader, or any other leadership capacity, you can offer your unique talents and perspectives. You decide the level of involvement that fits your skills and schedule, such as:
University programs, activities, and facilities are available to all without regard to race, color, sex, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, marital status, age, national origin, political affiliation, physical or mental disability, religion, protected veteran status, genetic information, personal appearance, or any other legally protected class.
If you need a reasonable accommodation to participate in any event or activity, please contact your local University of Maryland Extension Office at 410-887-8090 at least two weeks in advance.
