Record keeping and 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 Experience and are encouraged to summarize their experiences on the Kansas 4-H Project Report Form for project recognition.
To help you through this process, please refer to the Guide to Kansas 4-H Project Recognition and MED 4-H Record Book Tips.
VERY IMPORTANT:
Before you begin to keep project record reports for the year, please make sure you have a current version of Adobe Reader DC.

Record sheets are offered in two record types, a general record for all non-animal projects and one for the projects with animals. You still need to complete one record sheet for each project area enrolled in. (Ex: one general record for photography, one general record for visual arts & crafts, one general record for foods, and one animal record for bucket calf.) You still must complete a personal page and the permanent record each year in addition to the project record sheets.
