The County Activities of Excellence (CAE) awards recognize volunteer-led programming at the county level. The CAE awards are divided to four different categories: innovating and growing, growing engagement, advocating and adding value by sharing knowledge.

The top county in each category receives a cash award of $2,000 to be applied toward improving a program in that county. Additionally, each winning county will be eligible to send two members to INFB's state convention, which in 2025 will be called the Indiana Ag Gathering.

More information, as well as the entry form, can be found at infb.org/resources/volunteers/volunteer-center. Completed CAE applications must be received by email no later than Sunday, Aug. 31. The activity must have been conducted between the dates of Sept. 1, 2024-Aug. 31, 2025.
