• Junk Drawer Robotics project
• Food science poster or notebook
• Science experiment displayed as a poster or notebook
• Alternative energy experiment poster or notebook
• Engineering demonstration

Exhibit Guidelines

• Create an educational poster, notebook, or display about any STEM topic of your choice that is age/grade appropriate.
• Exhibits must include a completed 4-H General Record Sheet.
• Marion County 4-H poster exhibit guidelines and tips
• A reference list must be included with your poster, notebook, or display board.
