Today, Governor Roy Cooper pardoned two turkeys in a ceremony at the North Carolina Executive Mansion. In his remarks, Gov. Cooper remarked on the importance of gratitude, and his own thankfulness for the many educators, first responders, military servicemembers and public servants here in North Carolina.
Gov. Cooper pardoned Orville and Wilbur, two 45-pound toms from Toy Farms in Clinton, NC. After the ceremony, Orville and Wilbur will retire at Naylor Family Farm in Fuquay-Varina, where they will join chickens, peacocks, goats, pigs and calves.
"Last year set a high bar for how many Thanksgiving-related dad jokes I could make, and many folks told me I couldn't possibly top it. To that I say, 'I cran and I berry well will,'" Gov. Cooper said. "But beyond the jokes, Thanksgiving provides an opportunity to reflect on the many things we have to be thankful for – and I'm grateful to our first responders, educators, military servicemembers and dedicated public servants working every day to make North Carolina safer and more prosperous."
