success.

continuing to work with you in the future.  Best of luck in the coming year. Thanks again."

"Just a quick note of thanks and accolades for being a part of Shackamaxon Golf & Country Club's
annual Children's Halloween party.  You were highly recommended to me by our childrens's Camp
Director, where you had performed this past summer.  I was a little concerned when our Halloween
party grew to over 230 members, of which there were over 75 children - whether or not you would
be able to keep their attention - I know you were very successful with smaller groups.

My concerns were quickly dispelled once you began you "Magic & Monsters" program.  You captured
the attention of the children and parents alike.  In fact, I heard a comment from a couple of
fathers- "this guy is so good, we could have snuck out to play a few holes, and the kids would never
have known we were gone." The moms on the way out complimented my team on having the best
Halloween party in history- due largely in part to your show.

I look forward to having you return to shackamaxon for our upcoming Children's Holiday Party at the
end of December."
Jerome D. Louie, General Manager, Shackamaxon Golf & Country Club, Scotch Plains, NJ

Another great part of your entertainment package is the ease at which we can book your appearance.  
Being available to us with answers to all our questions is a big help.
Hopefully the rest of your summer has been good for your business.  We hope to see you next year,
so until then, keep up the good work."
