Our mission is to celebrate and honor families!

Family Hall Of Fame® has appeared in newspaper, radio and television news reports a number of times through the years in recognition of our work promoting positive parenting
within communities and families.

  In an interview on WTGL TV-52 which was shown several times on June 10^th and June 15^th Dr. James Reeher appeared on the show “Today’s Family.”  The host Ken Mikesell and hostess Rita Christie discussed the work of Father’s Hall Of Fame.  Our work of distributing parenting guidelines, promotion of literacy through work with the public and private school systems, and the basic premise behind starting our Internet virtual museum for the recognition of fathers were all topics of discussion.  Our future plans for our museum to function as a genealogical center where a family’s legacy could be displayed was also touched upon in the interview. 

Several of the winning stories submitted to Father’s Hall of Fame were shared during the interview and viewers were invited to reflect upon the positive experiences they shared with their parents.  We focused on the need to say, “I love you,” to those near to you, while they are still with you!  Father’s Day is a great day to do just that with your Dad.

  In several weekly radio interviews on Tampa Bays WWBA Radio, the host of “The Athlete’s Edge” Mr. Hal Jeffery and Dr. Reeher discussed some of the pitfalls and blessings of parenting. The influences parents have in the development of a winning athlete also became a lively topic of discussion on the show.  The various athletic Halls of Fame were discussed and then compared with the function of Father’s Hall of Fame.®   Listeners were encouraged to remember their father on Father’s Day and to participate in our writing contest!  Father’s Hall of Fame® also was recognized for our work with churches and Scouting in the Tampa Bay Area.

  Information on Father’s Hall of Fame® appeared in Discovery, central Florida’s Christian voice, as a part of their special Father’s Day issue.  Their sister radio station, WTLN AM 950 also broadcast information suggesting us as a great Father’s Day Website.

  We announced the “Father of the Year” just prior to Father’s Day.  We had a draw for Father of the Year among those named as candidates in America in 1999.  First United Methodist Church of Winter Garden, Florida named two of our fathers listed as national winners, Mayor Jack Quesinberry and Mr. Robert Karney. Also from the birthplace of Father’s Day, Spokane, Washington, the Church of the Nazarene named a single parent Dave Burkey as their Father of the Year.  Below a picture of two fathers named as the Father of the Year in the Florida area are shown receiving their induction awards from Dr. Jim Reeher.  They were selected through a promotional we offer local groups when they use our Father and Child Banquet Kits.  In our free Banquet Kits we offer churches, synagogues, and scouting groups the basics for a Father’s Day celebration.  Our Banquet Kit offers an activity sheet for children, banquet placemats, and parent resource handouts.   We also offer each organization a free induction for the father they name as Father of the Year.  (Banquet Kits are offered as long as supplies last.  Allow three weeks for delivery.)

  Father’s Hall of Fame® was recognized for it’s civic work in helping sponsor a children’s Halloween Contest and street party. Children from Kindergarten through High School competing in a Halloween Costume Contest organized by the Winter Garden Recreational Department received cash and other gifts from Father’s Hall of Fame®.

  Talk Radio Interviews took place with several radio stations.  One of the more exciting was that conducted just before Father’s Day with CBS Television and their Underground Website radio station in Dallas, Texas.   The interview was with Online Report’s Judd Amstee.  Onlinereport.com   featured our virtual museums as one of the top Internet sites on the Worldwide Web during one of the broadcasts.  We also conducted a talk show interview with Radio Station WWBA 1040 and WLVU 1470.  These interviews focused on our work with local schools, Boy Scouts of America, churches and other civic organizations.  We also had a discussion on the merits of having a unique way to honor mothers and fathers.  We promoted our services as a resource for parent training and family enrichment.
