Reporting Each club receiving a grant will be asked to keep a record or scrapbook of the project. Be sure to include photographs as well as any news news articles or press releases.

Completion of the report is important in the consideration of future grants.

*Please note that any photos provided by adult leaders must not contain images of children under the age of 18 unless the minor’s face cannot be seen. If the child’s face can be seen in the photos then they should not be included. If for any reason your club elects to provide a photo that includes the youth members of the club in which any faces of a minor can be seen, a release form from the child’s parent or guardian must be obtained and provided for such use of the child’s photo.
