SFR Brochure 2012 describes event, categories and service projects
SFR Manual 2012 smaller file Revised 1/23/2012
Larger file, will take longer to download SFR Manual 2012
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. Hopefully it will help guide members and leaders in 4-H projects and competitions.
The registration survey at http://ucanr.org/sfr12 will open April 1
Final entry deadline is May 12, 2012
