Subgroup 1 consists of extension specialist and county annual reports from 1911 to 1998. Subgroup 2 consists of records of the director's office from 1903 to 2002. Major series include I. Administration; II. Associations, Agencies and Organizations; IX. Program Determination & Development; X. Projects, Extension Specialists; XIII. Reports & Statistics; and XX. Programs. Subgroup 3 includes two series: county demonstration agent reports and state leader annual reports, dating from 1915 to 1969. Subgroup 4 pertains to the state-wide administration and program development of 4-H in Oregon; the relationship between 4-H and other associations, agencies and organizations; 4-H events and activities; and 4-H awards and scholarship winners on the national and state levels. Subgroup 6 consists of program and activities records from county offices. Currently this subgroup consists of one series -- records transferred from the Lane County Extension office in 1998 due to smoke damage.
