Superintendent, Christmas party
Magician for Redwater Independent School District

"I have had many teachers come to me saying that Lyndy was the best first day speaker they had ever heard. I agree. He was funny, entertaining, and interesting. Getting teachers to say they like something is very difficult, so he certainly deserves a pat on the back and a bravo!! I would love to him return next year."

Superintendent, Teacher In-Service Day

Coordinator-Child Nutrition, Staff Development Day
Magician for Oakland City University

"We LOVED Lyndy! He met AND exceeded our expectations! I will say unequivocally, he was the funniest we have ever had in the past eight years of having this event! The crowd loved him and I have received several comments this morning as I came in the building to work about how great he was! He was there plenty early to get himself all set up, was very professional in every way. His joyful personality came through in every aspect. He connected with the audience - and the people he called to the stage were just the perfect ones to bring a belly laugh to the audience!! Who doesn't like to see the Dean of a school be made fun of in a good way!! His material was fresh. His introduction by the George Bush look-a-like was hilarious, as well! The audience has given nothing but positive feedback that evening as well as today!"

Executive Assistant to the President, Employee Appreciation Event
Speaker for City of Virginia Beach Library Department

"The physical activity tied with the spoken concepts made things easier to remember, and it was a very memorable and fun way to process information! I liked that it was presented in a practical, interactive, and fun way. I especially liked the Play Break where we could have hands-on learning with juggling, plate spinning, and other activities. Both presenters were extremely gracious, patient, and friendly. I would definitely recommend them to others!"

Librarian, All Staff Training Day

"Lyndy was just what we needed. After a busy week of trainings and preparations for the new school year, Lyndy made us remember why we are in this profession; to stress less and laugh more. He did a great job giving us a personal trip from his childhood to adulthood through a power point and stories. Lyndy related how his teachers made an positive impact on his life. We just loved the whole act, tricks and all. Everyone wants him to come back!!"

Event Planner, Teacher Inservice Luncheon
Motivational Speaker for Spartanburg County School District Two

"Our Welcome Back Convocation is how we launch each new school year. Over 1100 faculty and staff gather to get motivated to welcome back our students, celebrate achievements, and fellowship with each other. Larry Weaver helped make our August convocation become one of the most memorable in the 31 years we have held the event! After an exhaustive, months long search, our leadership team decided to invite Larry to be a presenter at our gathering; he didn’t disappoint. Larry was easy to work with and responsive to communication, and his performance on stage was wonderful. It was packed with audience-appropriate comedy that kept us laughing! Our team loved Larry’s jokes that tied in perfectly with his message of positivity."
