Scrapbook
Guidelines
The YES Executive Board encourages YES chapters to develop
club scrapbooks. The scrapbook is a record of club membership,
activities and service. For the past years, the Executive
Board has sponsored a scrapbook contest at the State Conference.
The host institution will provide judges for the content,
organization and creativity of the scrapbooks. This year
there will be separate categories for middle and high school
clubs.
