Perma-Link » http://4-HHistory.com/?ps=54
It may be seldom that you can get the president of a major auto manufacturer and the president of the United Auto Workers to agree on anything... but it happened in 1986; and, it was about 4-H! One of the 4-H TV promotion spots features Harold Poling, Ford Motor Company president and Owen Bieber, president of the United Auto Workers together. And, best yet, they were both former 4-H'ers.
Other spots in the promotional package in 1986 featured President Ronald Reagan, NASCAR racing legend Richard Petty and country-western singer Reba McEntire. Their connection to 4-H? In addition to Poling and Bieber, McEntire was also a former 4-H'er; Petty is a former 4-H volunteer leader; and, President Reagan was honorary chairman of National 4-H Council. The PSA's were developed jointly by the Extension Service, USDA, and National 4-H Council.
