Our 4-H program provides a creative a supportive environment in which culturally diverse youth and adults can reach their full potential. Our local county program works to develop life skills to help young people become self-directed, productive citizens. We also work to empower adult volunteers who multiply the efforts of our local county Extension staff. The State 4-H program is committed to provide educational curriculum and related learning experiences for youth and adults involved in community groups, school enrichment programs and special interest learning situations. These services are available through county Extension offices by NMSU faculty on the state and county levels.

4-H Record Book Material

Record Books are DUE soon!!!! Please click on the link below for the forms needed for the 4-H Record Book. Included is the cover sheets for Novice, Junior, Senior.

Recordbooks are a very important part of your 4-H experience. However, we realize there is a lot of confusion surrounding them. To help sort this out we have decided to create two categories of recordbooks, completion and competition.
For those of you just wanting to complete your project you will do a project record sheet for that project. There will be a livestock record sheet, horse record sheet, rodeo record sheet, a pet record sheet, and a generic project record sheet (for non-livestock projects). By doing a project record sheet it will mean you have completed your project and you will receive a completion pin at the Achievement Awards.
Now for those of you interested in competing with your recordbook we will offer a competition category as well. This will require you to not only complete a project record sheet for each project you are enrolled in, but also completing the Eddy County 4-H Report Form. We really encourage members to enter their recordbooks in the competition category as you will be eligible for awards and recognition. All the necessary record sheets will all be available on the county 4-H website soon. If you have any questions please feel free to contact either Amy or Charly.
