Back to the Books!

Hello everyone, Chris here!

It's been several months since my last post to The Brain Show blog and there's a good reason for that. My travels since the end of the school year have taken me to Massachusetts, Ohio, Indiana, Connecticut and all over New York! It's been a busy summer on the road and in the the Brain Show office!

Lots of hard work and dedication go into The Brain Show every year. This year is no exception. With new questions, sound clips and dances, we are all very excited for this upcoming school year. Don't forget to call our office toll free to find out information on bringing The Brain Show to your school or function. Jeff and Beverly will be very happy to hear from our current clients and even speak to those who would like to become part of The Brain Show Family!

The new school year is upon us and you may be asking, "What is new with The Brain Show this year?" Let me tell you some fun and exciting changes! We start with a new set design and back drop! Special thanks to Arielle for her hard work and dedication in the "hand" drawing of this new feature! In previous years you may have collected the "Brain Show Maniac" medal. A new medal is here and we are excited to roll it out this upcoming school year. If you are chosen as a contestant to participate in the first round of The Brain Show, you will have the chance to win a new Brain Show Tee-Shirt!

Thanks to all of our friends and family who have had The Brain Show at your school year after year. We look forward to providing you with quality "Education Entertainment". Don't forget to call the office after your schools performances and ask about our "Loyalty Lock-In".

I hope to be out on the road and get the chance to see some familiar faces and meet some new friends. Thanks again and see you soon!

Spring has Sprung

While traveling here and there on the road, I have noticed a definite change in temperature! Things are looking good! On my recent travels the temperature hit a nice 78 degrees! I was about to break out my swim suit, shorts and tank top until I realized....we are still in March! Hopefully this trend will continue!
Special thanks to Diane, Toni and Brian for having me back again this year to your schools! What a great school district and great group of kids that you have. It's always fun to be in your area.
As we continue to train our new hosts, The Brain Show is always looking for fun, exciting and energetic people to join our wonderful family! Jeff, Beverly, Chris, Arielle and Chris R. want to thank you for thinking of us as we bring The Brain Show to many schools across the United States! Exploring new areas is always fun to do!
Don't forget you still have time to book your show for the 2010-2011 school year. Our phones have been ringing off the hook and Jeff and Beverly have been VERY busy in the office keeping up with contracts and phone calls. I would like to thank them for all of the hard work that they do for us and for the company. It's nice to be involved in such a tight-knit family environment!
Thanks to Arielle for all of the hard work that you do. Training for months and now traveling on the road, bringing top-notch assemblies to schools across the Country! Your hard work and dedication is GREATLY appreciated.
It's finally time for me to take some time off and recharge my batteries. I am looking forward to taking a week of vacation next week and spending some time with my Family and Friends. Don't worry though, The Brain Show will always be on my mind.

The Brain Show wants YOU!

Hey everyone! Arielle here.

The Brain Show has been very busy lately between the five teams. Jeff & Beverly are gearing up for a few solid months of traveling cross country keynoting Conferences, School related shows and corporate events, along with many other exciting endeavors!
Chris has been on the road constantly, doing what he does best: hosting your favorite game show! (His energy is extremely contagious!) Thank you for being a constant source of inspiration.
Glenn & Steve also rocking the world on the road with their shows: well done gentlemen!

Just wanted to extend a few thanks to the schools I most recently visited: Rush ES, WestPenn ES, Tamaqua ES, PKC, BGPS, and Bayview PS! Holly & Rachel - Thank you for having us back again! Ann Marie & Kathy - it has been an absolute pleasure working with you! Thank you parents for all of your hard work!

Teachers, Adminstrators & Staff... our sincerest gratitude goes out to you as well! Thank you for your suggestions & questions that keep us on our toes. Without your input, the Brain Show would not be in the wonderful place it is today.

Brain Show Fun Fact:

All of the questions in the Brain Show are submitted by teachers, schools & hired professionals in the fields based on ages & curricula. The Brain Show staff then selects & organizes the material provided. We cover all major subjects along with many minor or elected subjects. Our material is on a constant cycle to remain fresh & up-to-date to give you, the fans of the Brain Show, the best experience possible.

On the Road again!

Hey everyone, Chris here......

Another week has gone by and more of that fun white stuff has fallen from the sky! Don't worry, one way or another The Brain Show will make it to your school!
My Travels this past week have taken me to some fun places to reunite with some familiar faces!
Thanks Center and Memorial schools as well as Jefferson, Estis and Memorial! A big shout out to Denise and Patty for having us back again this year at your schools!
Luckily this week I was out of the state of PA and on the road to avoid the massive snow storm(s) that have blanketed our area. As Jeff and Beverly try to dig their way out of the office (I believe over 2 feet of snow has fallen in the past week)they also have been very busy with rescheduling shows that have had to postpone until a later date! I would like to thank them for all that they do for us at The Brain Show. We are a close knit family who takes care of each other on a daily basis!
So hopefully the groundhog was not correct this year and winter will be over sooner than later!
We are also gearing up for another great summer with camps. Bookings are already coming in for July and August as well as many schools re-booking for the next school year! We are blessed to have such great clients and friends over the past years!
Keep watching for some fun and exciting facts about The Brain Show coming in my next post!
Stay safe and most of all stay warm!

The Brain Snow... sorry, Show, Thanks YOU!

Hey everyone, it's Arielle!

Just wanted to send a shout out to all of my Catholic schools from last week:

M. Teresa Regional, Our Lady of Peace, Incarnation - St. James, Our Lady Mt. Carmel and St. Joseph... Thank you all very much for having me at your schools during such a joyous week!

A special shout out to Ms. Ferrick & the "houses" that competed for points at MTR: St. Aquinas took the round, followed closely by St. Seton & St. Jude. Congratulations to all of you!

Also, thank you to South Side Elementary's wonderful students and staff! You made my day very enjoyable, thank you to Mrs. Fowlkes & Mrs. Womack who answered my constant calls! Hope to see you soon for some family fun!

Everyone at the Brain Show appreciates your efforts & enthusiasm, especially when it comes to communication about wintry weather or other obstacles. We are here for YOU. The northeast has seen a tremendous amount of weather (record breaking in some places) in the past couple of weeks, we hope that you are safe and enjoying the beauty of nature!

Also an inter-office thank you to Chris and Jeff, who spent a great deal of time building my orange show! It looks (and works) fantastic!

Brain Show Fun Fact:

I mentioned that my show is orange; well it's not ALL orange... All of our shows are color coded according to host for organizational purposes.

PS I'm working on a new T-shirt design for the Brain Show, check back frequently for updates!

The Brain Show takes over Catholic Schools week!

Hey Gang, Chris here! As our travels came to an end this past week during Catholic Schools week, I take time to look back at all of the fun that we had. I would like to start off by thanking all of my new friends at Academy of Our Lady, St. Roberts, Good Shepard Academy, St. Teresa and St. Joe's. We dodged the snow storm at the end of the week and all made it home safe and sound. We would like to thank you all for another great year during our run of Catholic Schools Week! We look forward to seeing you all again next year!
It's another week out on the road and another snow storm expected to hit some of the areas that we are traveling in. No need to worry. Did you know that if your shows are canceled, we look forward to working with you to reschedule them as soon as possible. That's the nice thing about working with the staff of The Brain Show. Our goal is to make it as easy as possible to bring our exciting Educational Assembly to your school!
So thanks again to all for another great week! More to come as we put in another week of great travels!

See you Soon!
