Some 4-H'ers are chosen each year in special award categories. A
book is presented to 4-H'ers with outstanding work, quantity,
quality, years, citizenship, leadership, participation, skill
acquisition and growth. The books are given in three age categories:
8-10 years old, 11-13 and 14-19. A Blue Award is given to 4-H'ers
deserving of repeat recognition in a category. In the 14-19 category
the 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 2012 are as follows:
