Event Purpose:

The purpose of the event is to provide an engaging evening with participant involvement and lots of singing and good feeling - through song, dance (by MC and those who would like to), and laughter.  My goal is to actively solicit involvement from all participants and to assure that all participants have fun and feel they are part of a team.  My history of over twenty years as a camp counselor (and MC of evening entertainment programs) and many years as a teacher has resulted in the necessary skills to manage groups and assure they have fun.  I have successfully run programs for all size groups over my career. In addition, as a teacher, I have presented to large groups for staff development training and won an award of “Funniest Teacher in NYC” at Stand Up NY.

Event General

Description:

 

• Participants will be randomly assigned to teams of approximately 8 people

• Each team will come up with a team name and cheer

• Teams will have a specified amount of time to come up with songs with a particular word (such as color) in the title or lyrics of the song

• I will then call upon teams individually to sing at least two lines from the song that contain the particular word

• Teams will be awarded points based on the number of “singers” and enthusiasm displayed

• Songs may not be repeated

• There will also be a round with (volunteer) participants singing solos and performing dances

• Prizes will be awarded (there will be an awards ceremony)

• Trivia questions (based on general information, name that tunes, and entertainment               questions) will be interspersed with the singing to provide a diverse experience

• MC will do some “stand up,” often involving willing audience members, to liven up the show even more!

• Score will be kept throughout the event
