furnished a jar bearing their name by 4-H Advisory Committee. 4. Any club that participates in the Penny War MUST man the booth for at least one two-

hour shift. A club who is unable to personally man a shift may have a proxy (another club) man the booth for the mandatory 2 hour shift. No club can have a club proxy for them more than one time. A club can just be highlighted during a 2 hour shift. It is not necessary that the proxy club be a participant in the Penny Wars. A. A club MUST have at least one adult in the booth at all times. B. No more than 3 or 4 youth members are to be in the booth at any given time. C. The jars are to remain on the booth table. (They are not to be picked up and walked

into their jar. They CAN NOT discourage people from putting funds into the jars of other clubs.

E. Jars will be taped shut. The seal will be checked by the 4-H Committee member who is checking on the shift change. Any broken seals at the beginning of the shift will mean that the departing club will forfeit their entry into the drawing for that shift.
