It was wonderful having Clint to speak before our Talk Series. All comments from attendees have been superlative and we loved having him and his wife as both our guests and our speaker.

I want to let you know how much we appreciated Clint's presentation before our community group. Thank you is not even the beginning of how we feel about all he has accomplished for our organization. Clint's most recent presentation was exceptional in content and delivery. He had the full attention of the audience from his first sentence to the last. I marvel at his ability to capture and excite the group. As a listener I feel as though I am a part of his presentation. Many of our attendees have contacted us with very positive comments about his talk and how it gave them an insight into a different view of what had gone on during that period. Once again we are being asked when we will have him back. As I think back to 1997 and the first time you were a part of our program I am again reminded of the quality and success of his presentation. Comparison of then and now has me thinking that like a great vintage age has polished and smoothed him to perfection.

I greatly benefited from Clint's presentation concerning child predators and have used his handouts about "What Children Need to Know" and "The Characteristics and Early Warning Signs of an Abusive Individual" well. Our association has reprinted material from his lecture for the benefit of 1,300 independent school leaders in Florida.
