Rodeo clown enters education arena on bullying problems

Got a call this evening from rodeo clown Marvin Nash. We discussed some mutual acquaintances in the rodeo world and he mentioned he was in NM conducting a program for school kids. It was a program about bullying called Bullying Hurts. Marvin started this anti-bullying program over 10 years ago, long before Oprah, The View or other media types picked up on this issue.

Check out the video below, visit his website, review the programs offered and check out the ringing endorsements from various school officials (One principal reported a 75% decline in bullying incidents).

If you are as impressed as I was, you may want this program brought to your school.

Besides, you have to know that anyone who pushed a clown's barrel all the way from Cowtown, NJ to Washington DC - just to bring this issue to the public's attention - darn sure believes in what he's doing.

In another article it states he started the anti-bullying in 2004....that's not quite 10 years from today, however, your article was written in 2011...hmmmm
