At the Quebec 4-H Annual General Meeting, the members in attendance honour two of their peers who have demonstrated excellence. Secret ballots are counted to decide who will be presented with the Leadership Challenge Award and the award for Best Presentation at Quebec 4-H Annual General Meeting.
At the Quebec 4-H Annual General Meeting, clubs are acknowledged in two areas: Outstanding Achievement Community Involvement and Club which has shown the Most Improvement over the year.
Provincial Rally Spirit Award
Each year, outstanding 4-H members are recognized for their achievements. Every summer, one member is recognized with the Provincial Rally Spirit Award, presented to the person who best exemplifies enthusiasm, leadership and “Learning to do by doing”.
The Spirit Award
This award is presented each year to a 4-H member who best exemplifies the 4-H motto ‘Learn to Do by Doing’ while demonstrating their leadership skills. This award is to encourage participation in all of the Rally’s activities with enthusiasm.
This year’s award was presented to Shawville 4-H member Kathleen Hickey. Congratulations Kathleen!
Keeping Connected
Keeping connected with Quebec 4-H is the best way to ensure that you are always up to date on upcoming Awards, Bursaries, and Scholarships! Many scholarships are based on academic achievement. However, others are awarded for breed involvement, leadership, community service and other areas of interest.
Quebec 4-H periodically updates its members on upcoming opportunities through its annual Opportunities Guide, via a 2-page spread in the bi-monthly News Spreader, though its Monthly Email Updates and through its Facebook page as opportunities arise. Quebec 4-H members receive all of these resources and much more just by being registered with the Provincial Association.
