SFR Manual 2012 smaller file (Revised 1/23/2012)
SFR Manual 2012 (Larger file)
SFR 2012 information forms (in Word, for counties to use or modify)

SFR Manual version 2, revised for 2012. Counties, project leaders, members and families are encouraged to download and read the manual. It is not required for the manual to be adopted by county or sectional competitions, but it is recommended that it be used as the state-wide standard for 4-H Fashion Revues. Consistency will help 4-H members understand the requirements of their categories and methods of evaluation which will be used at each level of competition. The manual is a living document and will continue to be updated as needed.
