Some 4-H'ers are chosen each year
in special award categories. A book is presented to a 4-H'er with
outstanding work, quantity, quality, years, citizenship, leadership,
participation, skill acquisition and growth. These are given in
three age categories: 8-10, 11-13 and 14-19 years of age. A Blue
Award is given to a 4-H'er deserving of repeat recognition in a
category. In the 14-19 age category, medal awards are nationally
sponsored and may be received only once in each curriculum area. The
top award winners in the major award categories for 2009 are as
follows:
