Using the 4-H Name and Emblem







From: 4-H National Headquarters at USDA, January, 2011.
If you plan to use a logo from the National 4-H Shooting Sports program you must obtain authorization from 4-H National Headquarters at USDA OR incorporate your county name as part of the logo so your 4-H Youth Extension Educator has the authority to approve its use. The fact sheet from National 4-H is four pages of instructions. Coordinators should work with their County 4-H Youth Extension Educator to assure proper usage. The first page of the document is shown →.

The link to the Use of Name & Emblem fact sheet is: http://www.csrees.usda.gov/nea/family/res/pdfs/using_the_4h_name.pdf
