Our Revised Diamond Clover Guidelines are posted on our website in the “Youth and Families” section under “Awards & Recognition”. These revisions will apply to all 2013 Diamond Clover Proposals – note the due date for 2013 Proposals at the State 4-H Office is September 15th – and for future years – remember the September 15th due date at the State Office level. Youth should check for local turnaround times with their 4-H Educators. NOTE: since the Diamond Clover Guideline have just been revised – we do not want to deter any current plans or projects – so, we will accept any proposals approved at the county/city level for this year, so send any that you have gotten approved on the county/city level to the State 4-H Office – THEN for 2013 we will start with the September 15th Deadline. - posted May 15, 2012
