<p>Use this section of your record book to use pictures to tell about your 4-H projects and year. To make this section more engaging, include photos from the beginning, middle, and end of each project. Oh, and use action shots: they are much more fun to look at and tell and better story. If you have a particular part of your record book that you found hard to describe in words, include a picture here to clarify.</p>

<p>Handwriting your record book can help your book feel more real and authentic if done right. In other words, handwritten records are more likely if you are keeping records throughout the year and adding them to your book right away (especially in the cummulative sections). If you do handwrite your record book, practice your handwriting so that it is very readable. The judges aren't trying to place books on penmanship, but if they can't tell what the records behind that scrawl are, they will likely discard it.</p>

<h2>To tab or not to tab</h2>
<p>The best place to keep your record book is in a physical three-ring binder. That way, you can access it any time, add pages as needed, and keep everything in the proper order. The extension office may have handed you a record book held together with a staple or paperclip, but that doesn't mean it should stay that way! The three-ring binder becomes an incorerent mass of papers without some form of guides, however. To tame the reams, the record book committee <strong>strongly recommends</strong> the use of tab dividers.</p>
