IT WAS SUCH A GREAT COMBANATION OF “OOOHS AND AAAHS WITH FASCINATING INFORMATION. IT WAS THE LARGEST CROWD WE EVER HAD FOR A SUMMER READING PROGRAM! PATRONS WERE POSITIVELY COMMENTING ON IT ALL DAY!

The Best Bang For Your Buck!

We were looking for something special to do for our snake loving son's 10th birthday when I stumbled across Richard's website. We offered our son a choice: a traditional birthday party and gift or a Reptile Man party. He chose the reptile party and it was one of the best decisions he ever made!

It's a week later and I can't set foot in my son's school without being stopped by someone raving about the show. The kids can't stop talking about it. Kids that weren't even at the party are talking about it. Even his teacher wanted to know more since the reptile interest of her students has gone through the roof.

Richard was punctual and amazingly professional. All of the animals were healthy and gorgeous. The show had exactly the right mix important information, fun facts, true-life stories, and playfulness. The fact that these city kids got to touch and hold this global array of animals was an unbeatable experience they won't soon forget. Even the kids who were a little wary of reptiles couldn't help but join in the fun.

Would I hire Richard again? Absolutely and without hesitation. The money spent on this show was some of the best money I've ever spent.

Thank you so much for your wonderful presentation at the Driftwood Library in Lincoln City, Oregon.  It is Wonderful - to have entertainers - as well as educators - that will come and give us their all.

You continue to amaze me with how you have combined entertainment and education for our families—thank you. Folks keep coming to see you even though they have seen you many times before. I think they especially like to be able to touch and interact (or watch someone else be the “victim”) with your reptilian friends. We counted up to 600 people on the lawn to watch your show.

If all the beasts were gone, men would die from a great loneliness of spirit, for whatever happens to the beasts also happens to the man. All things are connected.

You were so awesome last night at the Salem Library, We sat in the front row and it was great! Hubby got to pet an Alligator, and the Cobra slithered about my feet.. it was great! Our son has wanted to do nothing but look up snakes all day long on the Internet. Maybe you helped to created a future Herpetologist.. who knows! :) In any event, THANK YOU, it was a great night!-Kristen Turner-Salem, OR.

Thank you OLC for the $250 donation to aquire a Crocodile. I have found one about 18", and as soon as I get a picture, I will post it here for you guys.
 
Thank you!

Fear does not serve you, it serves others in their control over you, and limits the fun and beautiful experiences you may have in your time upon this world.
