2 4-H Club Treasury Check-UP! Quality Clubs 2 If your 4-H club has a treasury, it is important for a review committee to review treasury records once a year. A review protects the club and outgoing and incoming treasurers, and confirms the amount of money the club really has in their account(s). The best time to do a review of the club treasury is when new officers are elected and before the new treasurer takes responsibility for the club funds. A review committee should consist of 3-4 people, such as the president, a club leader, a parent and other club members. (If your club has a constitution, it may specify who should serve on the review committee and when the review should be done). Does your club treasury meet the following guidelines? Club has an employee Identification Number (EIN). Club uses Treasurer s 4-H Record Book, 4-H 21. Club prepares and approves a budget for the year. Checks are recorded, maintained and there are no missing checks. Records are written in ink to prevent changes. Treasurer s book can be reconciled with the most recent bank statement. Club requires at least two adult leader s names and the youth treasurer s name on the bank account. Two signatures are required on each check issued. Payments are made in response to a formal written bill or invoice and shows the purpose of the expenditure. Club minutes reflect a monthly report by the club treasurer. Expenditures are made only after approval by the club members at the meeting in which they were presented for approval and payment, (recorded in the monthly minutes). All money received is acknowledged with a written receipt, deposited in the bank and receipts are a permanent part of the club records? Fund-raising activities have prior review from the County Extension Education Director. All money raised using the 4-H name is used only for 4-H activities. (Not given to individuals but for: Educational programs, activities, workshops or 4-H club supplies). Non-cash donations have been acknowledged in writing to the donor.

32 Answers to: Do You Know Parliamentary Procedure? Quality Clubs TRUE However, there are exceptions. This is not necessary in smaller meetings such as a committee meeting. 2. TRUE In business meetings, it is only after a member has addressed the presiding officer as Mr./Madam President and has been recognized that they are privileged to speak and to present the proposal. 3. FALSE It is better to say I move that 4. TRUE A Motion should not be discussed until it has been seconded and restated by the president. 5. FALSE Only in large formal meetings is it necessary for the one who seconds a motion to be recognized. 6. TRUE All reports where a committee makes recommendations needs to be approved by the group. 7. FALSE Nominations made from the floor do not need to be seconded. When it is moved that the report of a nomination committee be accepted or that nominations cease or that the secretary be instructed to cast a unanimous ballot for those nominated, this is a main motion. These situations do require a second followed by discussion and a vote. 8. FALSE In every case, the presiding officer should emphasize the fact that while the nominating committee has studied the situation and made recommendations, other nominations are still in order. 9. FALSE The secretary does not need to keep a record of who seconds a motion but must record who made the motion. However, many clubs prefer to record the second. 10. FALSE The secretary does stand up as they read the minutes. 11. TRUE The secretary may remain seated when they call roll because it s easier to record in the secretary s book. The secretary must stand when the minutes are read. 12. FALSE After the minutes have been read, the chairman may ask, Are there any corrections to the minutes as read? If not, they stand approved as read. If there is a correction, the president asks the secretary to make the change. 13. FALSE An amendment to a motion should be seconded the same as the main motion to which it applies 14. FALSE A chairman cannot ignore a motion. The president must deal with a motion which has been made and seconded by following the parliamentary procedure. The president must also acknowledge points of order and appeals. 15. TRUE Better meetings will result if the chairman always prepares advance program outlines or agenda.

36 Room To Improve Your 4-H Club Meeting Quality Clubs 36 This document is appropriate for use with 4-6 grades and teen clubs. About the Club Meeting The club meeting is "4-H" to the young 4-H'er. Belonging to a club and attending meetings appeal to the 9- to 11-year-old. Many young people go to "bad" meetings because they simply want to belong to a club. A "good" 4-H meeting: is a social experience. is an opportunity to develop leadership skills. makes 4-H'ers feel good about themselves. helps 4-H'ers discover new ideas. Making Meetings Fun Thoughtful planning goes into a "good" meeting. Consider how to: Quick Activities to Get Kids Talking Under the Activities category on the web. get each 4H'er involved. give out warm fuzzies (kind or complimentary remarks) to 4-H'ers. have group activity. To get each 4-H'er involved, observe who does what during the business meeting, the program, and recreation. Rather than "letting things happen," ask shy members to do something during the meeting. Some need to be encouraged while others need to he held back. To help you plan meetings, refer to " Planning & Conducting 4-H Club Meetings (4H-115D) on the web at Under General 4-H category. Give out "warm fuzzies" to make each 4-H'er feel special. Use cotton balls for "warm fuzzies" and give to deserving 4-H'ers at each meeting. Before the meeting, decide who needs a "warm fuzzy" and when to give it. Group activities make learning fun and exciting. Some strategies you might use are small group discussions, brainstorming, role playing or games. Orient resource people before the meeting on how to involve the 4-H'ers. You could suggest: a "hands on" experience. a listening team. brainstorming to generate questions. This material was taken from the 4-H Club Officers Manual, C-408. Each officer of your club should have his/her own copy of the publication. They are available through the Extension office.

38 Working With 4-H Club Officers Quality Clubs 38 This document is appropriate for use with 4-6 grades and teen clubs. Needs of Officers Officers need training and help to be "good." Encourage new officers to participate in any training offered by 4-H. Meet with them to review the following questions about their new roles. 1. What am I supposed to do? 2. How so we work as a team? 3. What do I do at club meetings? 4. How can we involve other members of the club? 5. How do we prepare for meetings? Helping Officers Ask parents to help their child perform the duties of the office. As the officer learns his/her duties, the parent can assume more of a support role and less of a helping role. Teen officers will also need support from parents but more in the form of encouragement than actual help in performing the duties of the office. A club helper/leader works with the officer team. The officers work as a team to provide overall leadership for the club. This means: setting goals they hope to achieve as officers. setting an example for other club members. being informed about County 4-H Council events. Before each meeting, a club helper/leader and office team need to plan for the following (refer to So You Are President- pg. 5 Program Plan for 4-H Meeting): an agenda. business to be handled. ways to involve all members in discussing items of business. parliamentary procedure that may be necessary for each item of business. After each meeting have a brief critique. Tell officers what they did right and what they need to improve next time. The goal of the officers should be to improve with each meeting. Electing Officers Basically, there are two methods: #1- Using a nominating committee (has the advantage of control). #2- Getting nominations from the floor (requires no prior planning even though anyone who is nominated should agree to serve if elected.) Voting can be done by show of hands or by secret ballot. Installing Officers An installation ceremony formalizes the responsibility of the new group of officers. A candlelight ceremony is provided on the web at Under the Club Dynamics Section: Installation of 4-H Club Officers, samples taken from 4H-111-E (doc) C:\Users\lzeman\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.Outlook\LAVR2XNF\QualityClubOfficerParliActivity.doc
