Working with the MediaAg Day Celebration Introduction ScriptWelcome! We're delighted you've chosen to join us as we celebrate Ag Day 2010! This is the 37th Anniversary of National Ag Day. That's over 37 years of recognizing agriculture's role in American life, and that's certainly an achievement worth celebrating! <applause> First, I'd like to take a brief moment and thank key individuals and organizations who made today's event possible. <discuss individuals and their contribution> But more broadly, I think it's important - particularly on a day like today - to show our gratitude to the many men and women who make agriculture possible. I know many of you are with us today. We know that food and fiber doesn't just arrive at the grocery or clothing store . . . or magically appear on our dinner table or in our closet. There's an entire industry dedicated to provide plentiful and safe food for consumption . . . as well as a wide range of comfortable, fashionable clothing choices. We rely on agriculture for the very necessities of life. From beef and pork to cotton and corn, agriculture is working harder than ever to meet the needs of Americans and others around the world. And it's important to remember that American agriculture is not just doing it, but doing it better and more effectively! Consider this:
That's really what this day is all about . . . recognizing the role of agriculture - and celebrating it. Thank you for joining us today! Materials and Tools in Working with MediaEvent Planners
