Posted on Fri, Dec 10, 2010

School Assemblies - News from the Road

Posted on Tue, Dec 7, 2010

Travel is a regular part of the life of a school assembly performer. Professional presenters of school assemblies are regularly “on the road”, and these "road warriors" often rack up huge amounts of miles during the course of a normal school year. One presenter of ours who does not usually travel as often or as far, is our wonderful “Dr Exhaustus” himself, Jeff Hoge.

In addition, during the winter, Jeff handles our Living Lincoln assembly program.

George Bush senior, that is!
Yikes, it's been a long time doing school assembly programs!
