He’d like to come to your school to entertain you with his manatee awareness education program through fun music. His program can cover various time schedules to suit your needs. Gary has been teaching P.E. and practicing environmentalism for the last 30 years. His teaching certificate is valid until 2008.

School music programs/ concerts:

Gary’s music program is upbeat including Island, Rock, Country and Rap styles. All songs are original copyrighted material with an environmental theme and are very entertaining to children and adults alike. Save The Manatee Club and The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission have endorsed his songs and are being used in their statewide manatee education program.

Gary will come to your school and do up to three 30-40 minute programs for $350.00. He will provide an additional evening 50-60 minute program for an additional $100.00. Allow 30 days in advance for bookings, as travel and itinerary considerations must be made. Gary is planning on playing more than 100 schools in 2008 and 2009 and he hopes your school is one of them! Gary will sign free membership cards to “The Manatee Man Fan Club” for interested students and will sell CD’s and T-shirts at a discounted price!
