96% of those attending felt the program was great or very good. Comments included: 1) I learned what a ventriloquist is and a demonstration on how to do it;. 2) Very entertaining for all ages and generations. It was great. 3) My kids have never seen a ventriloquist. 4) This is the 3rd event we have attended this summer. Thanks Legacy Funds!
