The 2006 Salute to Excellence application and guidelines are now
available at http://www.fourhcouncil.edu/SaluteToExcellenceProgram.aspx
Staff must submit complete nomination packets to the state office electronically by March 24th for consideration. New Hampshire will then submit one volunteer in each category.
No late entries will be allowed. Letters of support must come electronically so that the State 4-H Office can submit to National electronically.
National 4-H Council has redesigned the nomination and application process. Based on input from the system they are implementing a new regional nomination process where two volunteers will be awarded from each region; and from the eight, two national awardees will be chosen. Regional awardees will be recognized at their Regional Volunteer Leader Forums in fall 2006 and the national awardees recognized in spring 2007 at National 4-H Conference. It is our hope that this new process will attract greater participation and gain visibility for our valuable 4-H volunteers.
