Sheraton Hotel Dallas Christmas Party

Image
Just had a great time entertaining employees of The Sheraton Hotel in Dallas with my strolling magic show at their annual Christmas party. Thanks to our host and event coordinator Lisa Benkowitz for giving me the opportunity to be a part of the festivities. I am now on their list of preferred entertainers for future events at the hotel! Looking forward to the next show there.

Penn & Teller Performance

For once, I actually got to be a part of the audience of a magic show, instead of the guy on stage. Penn & Teller, two of my all-time favorite magicians in the whole world, performed their fantastic stage magic show at The Winstar World Casino and Hotel in Oklahoma. They absolutely blew me away with their magic, and I got to meet Penn Jillette in person for the first time! Of course, THAT photo didn't turn out, thanks to a stranger that didn't know how to push a button on a camera. But I have some great memories of the event, and the Winstar Hotel went out of their way to make my stay an enjoyable one. I will definitely be going back to attend more shows there.

Independent Electrical Contractor's Association Christmas Party

It was a huge party! I had a great time at The Wyndham Hotel in Dallas performing my strolling magic show for members of the Independent Electrical Contractor's Association for their sixtieth anniversary Christmas party. Yes, they have been in business for SIXTY years, educating apprentice electricians to work in the electrical industry. This was my second time to be invited to perform at one of their Christmas parties. A special thanks goes out to Marsha Hughes, Assistant Deputy Director of the school, to my right in the four-person photo, for hiring me to entertain at the party, and for introducing me to the talent and event coordinator of the hotel! This is the second hotel in a row this year that now has me on their list of preferred entertainers! Can you spot me sharing my magic with guests in the large group shot? That's me, right next to Waldo.

Dallas Magic Clubs Christmas Party

Daryl Howard with Jeff Hallberg (aka Santa Clause) Daryl had a wonderful time at the Dallas Magic Club's annual Christmas party, hosted by Club members Dal and Cinde Sanders at their home. Our traditional "white rabbit" gift exchange went well, and we even had a surprise visit by none other than Jeff Hallberg, aka Santa Clause, who was in Dallas for the holidays, and stopped by to be a part of the festivities. We've just entered a whole new year. Where has the time gone? Can't wait to see what magical experiences 2018 will bring!
