Programs for Fall and Winter 2013

Plan now to book your program for this Fall and Winter with Stephen Hollen, Storyteller and Historic
Impersonator!  There are several exciting possibilities you might consider.  All are well received by groups of all ages, but are especially designed for Seniors!  

Last year Stephen traveled through 6 states and did over 130 programs!  (He is happy to provide references!) Also, ask about the Seniors Program discounts available.

What programs you ask?  Here are some great choices!

BUFFALO BILL'S WILD WEST
 New for 2013 and already hugely popular!  Buffalo Bill will bring the West alive with a bit of history, stories, tall tales and maybe even a song or two



MARK TWAIN ALIVE!
With a twinkle in his eyes, wild hair and white suit and plenty of laughter, Stephen has traveled through quite a few states in the last several years bringing Mark Twain to life!  This is his most requested program and always a crowd pleaser.  

HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS  This is a great program for November and December.  Stephen performs warm Holiday Stories filled with humor and bittersweet memories and can craft the stories for groups with various holiday celebrations.  (Want a program that is fun and different?  Ask Stephen about Santa visiting and doing the "History of Santa Claus Program)

Summer Reading Program 2013

 Dig Into Reading
What will you find beneath the surface?

 Here are several photos you can use with Stephen's info for the summer reading program!

 What is hiding beneath the dirt?  Is there something lurking Beneath the Surface?

Join Storyteller Stephen "Doc" Hollen, Doctor of Dirtology and Itinerant Archeologist as he digs for gold and other treasures in stories from around the world and here at home!  come on in and watch as Stephen finds "gold in them there books" to steal a phrase.

He might even help children discover that there is more in the dirt than just gold or treasure... as he helps them discover that there are other riches beneath the surface of our own yards!  Hidden things that creep and crawl and help plants grow, roots and seeds and beautiful rocks just waiting to be discovered.

Stephen Hollen is an award winning storyteller and Historic Impersonator.  He holds a degree in Oral Interpretation (Storytelling) and is currently President of the Ohio Order for the Preservation of Storytelling, Past President of the Miami Valley Storytellers, a member of the National Storytelling Association and the Christian Storytelling Association.  He has been in Who's Who in America 4 times.  His blog www.mountainstories.net features stories and poems and is read by hundreds weekly from as far away as China, Israel and Ukraine.
