"Bob Ford brings history back to life through song and stories. His style, creativity, and ability to adapt his performances to any age range makes Ohio Travel Treasures his biggest fan. To see the smiles on our group tour participants' faces and hear the laughter as they learn to play their own musical instruments is something you don't see from many performers in this day and age. His vast range of style and talent far surpasses the majority."

Your ability to interact and respond to the youngsters with ease and authority adds to the impact of the show, and showcases your gift to teach as well as entertain."
