Charter 4-H Clubs |
4-H Clubs, not under the direction
of County Extension Staff, are chartered. Chartering enables Clubs to use
the 4-H Name and Emblem, meet the criteria and standards for the 4-H program
and serve as a part of the total county and Georgia 4-H Program.
Chartering aids in communication between the clubs and the total program
and ensures that everyone is following the same guidelines and procedures.
Chartering is coordinated by the Extension staff person working with or serving as liaison with the Club thru the Georgia 4-H office. Each club with the local Extension office will complete the Charter Checklist and provide the accompanying documentation. The local office, in turn, returns the checklist to the State 4-H Office to review and/or renew Charters. Charters must be renewed yearly in order for clubs to be considered 4-H Clubs.
If
a club is currently operating, chartering information must be completed
and the checklist submitted to the State 4-H Office (attn Jenny Jordan)
in August of 2006 or before the first club meeting. Any existing
clubs that have note been chartered by August can not meet until the charter
paperwork is complete and approved. New clubs may begin the process
and have approximately three months to complete the paperwork.
