Happy 100th Birthday to President Jimmy Carter! President Carter is a statesman, farmer, veteran, and a true American hero. Among his many accomplishments, he has long been a dedicated advocate for Georgia's economic development and prosperity. In celebration of his centennial milestone, we are pleased to share a moment from his time as Governor, participating in a Georgia watermelon eating competition—a reflection of his enduring support to farmers and agricultural, which remains Georgia's largest industry. The Georgia Chamber of Commerce extends its deepest gratitude to President Carter for his remarkable service to our state and nation. Special thanks to The Carter Center and the U.S. National Archives and Records Administration for assisting in preserving and sharing these important historical moments.
