Testimonial
"Billy B was up to the task to adapt his “Climate, Let’s Define It” into a virtual school enrichment program to create an engaging, informative, and fun experience for our elementary students! Using integrated audio and video technology, Billy was able to share his songs and dances about the climate, weather and our environment. He also was able to get the students to participate virtually so that they felt like they were part of the show."
