Dean & Cheri Cotton: Dean has been clowning since 2001 when he felt God calling him to clown after praying the “prayer of Jabez”. Since then, he has clowned in hospitals, churches, camps, nursing homes, community events, etc, at home, in other parts of the US and on mission trips to England, Wales, Japan, Ukraine and Lebanon. He is the founding member and “Big Kahuna clown boss” of Clowns With New Hope, a local clown troupe with 18 active members. Cheri, his wife is an active host as a Supporter Of Clowns at several conventions. She will be hosting the SOC program at CMC this coming year.

Ron Conley: Delivering a serious message with comedy isn’t so hard because comedy is serious business! A veteran performer, Ron has worked just about every venue imaginable, except funerals, although he did try to book one! During the last seven years Ron has presented his “Magical Say No Show” thousands of times and in fact, he has worked nearly every Elementary and Primary school in South Carolina! Unique in his Drug Program is the comedy, but it works because Saying No to Drugs is like Comedy…..Serious Business!
