“Having David Simon on board, particularly as we are on the threshold of so many phenomenal accomplishments, is truly exciting,” said Grand Master Eric O’Neal, Sr. “The unsurpassed knowledge, creativity, and skills he brings to the table ensure that the LIONMAN brand will soon be recognized on a global scale. We are truly honored to have him partner with us!”
“I am very proud and privileged to join Grand Master O’Neal, President Obama and the First Lady on one of the most important projects in our time.” said Simon. “President John F. Kennedy similarly challenged Americans 50 years ago. Once again we are prepared to spread the message to millions of young people: ‘Exercise and nutrition are cool and will help you improve and enrich your lives.’ Now is the time for all Americans to join together and support an important initiative for every American family. As the song says, we must ‘Teach Your Children Well.’”
