Note

This is one of the cumulative sections of the record book. At the start of each 4-H year, just append the new year's records to your previous year's records, giving a complete picture of your entire 4-H career.

Chronicle all of your altruistic service for others through 4-H in this section. In order to be recorded here, your actions must not be reimbursed or required in any way (that kind of defeats the point of service).

Most of the activities here should be done in the name of 4-H. Activities done through church, other clubs, or out of duty to family can be listed, but should be marked as "O" for "Other" in the "Level" column.
