Age Categories: 8-10, 11-12, 13-15 & 16-18
Each county may enter two participants per age division per category for District Competition. Records are only judged on the District Level. Gold, Silver and Bronze winners will be selected.
1. The project record competition recognizes excellence in annual 4-H project record books. Youth, who have been declared county champions in one or more of the curriculum areas listed, are eligible to compete for district awards in four age groups: 8-10, 11-12, 13-5, and 16-18.
2. District gold awards are valued at $50.
3. Age eligibility is established on January 1 of the project year. Work on the project may cover no more than 12 months. The 4-H program year is January – December, annually.
4. Records will be held in the County Extension office after judging. The 4-H’ers may not make improvements or alterations to the content of the record books after they have been submitted for county competition. This will ensure equal time for competitors to work on their project records. Project work in records should reflect work from January through December. Records are due in the State 4-H office on March 1 or as noted by the state 4-H staff.
5. A 4-H member may submit up to two project records for district competition. Counties may submit their top two projects in each category for district competition.

8. A 4-H member can be named a district gold winner in a curriculum area only one time for each age category. They can continue competing in that category, however, can only be named a gold winner once.
