"It was great having Larry Weaver as a speaker at our Southern California School Nutrition Association meeting. During this pandemic, our stress levels are high, and we needed to laugh. And he made us laugh! Larry weaved together jokes with the messages that we as an executive board have been sending to our members this year. Attendees communicated to me that they appreciated his humor. We also appreciated his promptness in communication as we were scheduling our agenda as well as his promptness that day. Joining us in advance of his time slot showed that he cared. Larry spent that extra time assessing and getting to know the audience. Thank you for your professionalism and the effort you put into understanding our association and our local area."

"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!"

He had great stories that he could relate to our organization and work we do with students with special needs. He had lots of laughs and gave us lots of inspiration throughout his Keynote presentation. I appreciated the ease of working with him from first contact to his presentation. He made sure to find out what our organization is about and who the audience was so that he could tailor his performance to fit what we needed.
