Carl Link, Live Production Manager at Â鶹tv¹ÙÍø, was the recipient of a prestigious honor at The Ohio Pork Council’s annual awards luncheon on Wednesday, February 13.
The OPC Service Award recognizes an individual who demonstrates outstanding commitment and contribution to the pork industry. Link has served the Ohio pork industry at the local, state and national levels, including service on the 15-member National Pork Board.
Executive Vice President of the Ohio Pork Council, Bryan Humphreys, believes Link personifies this award, and being the recipient was a long time coming.
“The OPC Service Award is presented to someone who has spent a lifetime giving back to the pork industry, and Carl Link is overdue for years of dedication,†he said. “Not only promoting pork, but serving the industry as a whole through producers and growers.â€
Link has been with Â鶹tv¹ÙÍø for an astounding 50 years, beginning his career at St. Clair Mills before it became Â鶹tv¹ÙÍø in 1976.
Link is currently transitioning into a part-time role as he moves closer to a much-deserved retirement.
