Some 4-H'ers are chosen each year in Special Award categories. A
top 4-H member is selected who has outstanding work, quantity,
quality, years, citizenship, leadership, participation, skill
acquisition and growth. These are given in two age categories: 11 -
13 years of age, and 14 - 19 years of age. Local award sponsors
include Atlanta Ag 4-H Club, Mike Booher, Brandt Consolidated, Farm
Credit Illinois, Hollanders 4-H Club, Middletown 4-H’ers, The
Pioneers 4-H Club, State Bank of Lincoln and Scott & Kelly Tucker

A Blue Award is given to a 4-H'er deserving of repeat recognition in
a category. In the 14-19 years of age category the medal awards are
nationally sponsored and may only be received once in each area.
