August 27 1:00‐3:00 pm RULES OF ENGAGEMENT: 1. Shifts will be farmed out to 4‐H Clubs, FFA, FCCLA or Farm Bureau Clubs. 2. All shifts will be 2 hours in length. Clubs are not to leave booth until they are relieved by the next club or a member of 4‐H Advisory Committee. 3. Upon making signed application by an advisor to enter the Penny War a club will be 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 around the barn or held at the door.) 2016 4‐H ADVISORY COUNCIL PENNY WARS 5.

D. Clubs are encouraged to promote their club and encourage people to deposit funds 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. F. The last ½ hour shift of the day will be manned by 4‐H Advisory Committee Members. All monies placed in jars have a “POINT” value, either POSITIVE or NEGATIVE. Read the Daily Rules carefully. Points are based on the value of the money (ie. Quarter is 25 points; dime is 10 points; nickel is 5 points; penny is 1 point, dollar coins or bills are 100 points). See daily rules to determine if the value is negative or positive. Participants can deposit money in any jar they wish, to add points to their own jar, or to reduce points (sabotage) in a competitor’s jar. Daily totals will be done and posted after the booth closes. Prize Money‐ Two Ways To Win 1. The three clubs accumulating the most positive points will be awarded: a. The top club will have its name placed on the Advisory Committee plaque. b. Clubs will be rewarded as follows: 1. Highest positive points = $25.00 2. Second highest positive points = $15.00 3. Third highest positive points = $10.00 Total payout: $50.00 2. For each shift at which a club covered the Penny Wars booth they will receive an entry into a drawing to take place at the Volunteer Banquet. A club may only win once in this drawing. 1. First club drawn= $15.00 2. Second club drawn= $10.00 3. Third club drawn= $5.00 Total payout= $30.00 Updated 7/20/16 Penny Wars Booth Schedule
