As soon as the contest is finished, please send the names of the winners (and their contest) directly to the sponsoring as- sociation. They will send all the award checks to the county Extension office rather than to indi- PAGE 88 ★ GRANT COUNTY FAIR ★ 2015 vidual winners, to help save on postage. The donor representatives LOVE to receive “thank you notes” from the 4-H members; it helps keep their donations coming to 4-H. Please remind your members to write a thank you note when they receive one of these awards. Donors do not want to be contacted by the counties with questions about the awards. Oregon Dairy Women do not wish to be con- tacted for additional donations besides those listed below. If you have any problems or ques- tions, please contact Roberta Lundeberg at 541.737.9595 or Roberta.lundeberg@oregon- state.edu The Oregon Dairy Women request that counties send the name of the contest/exhibit, number of winners and the amount of each award. The donor will write one check per county for all award winners, made payable to the “________ County Leaders’ Association”. The money will then need to be distributed to the 4- H members by the County Leaders’ Association. Many times 4-H members do not cash or de- posit the awards checks, which then creates ac- counting difficulties for the donors.
