Whiz Bang Science Show

Excite Your Students about Science Dr. Dave has the unique ability to take complex scientific concepts and explain them in a simple entertaining manner. When Dr. Dave covers the audience in toilet paper to help teach them about flight they really start to get excited. Weaving history, geography and math into his demonstrations of scientific principles, Dr. Dave provides a well rounded program that touches on a multitude of the Educational Standards. Who is Dr. Dave? Dr. Dave was only 4 years old when man landed on the moon, but that event would have a huge impact on his life that has ultimately led to the Whiz Bang Science Show. The excitement of watching that moon walk and seeing all of the scientists in the control room that made it happen inspired him to be a scientist some day. Dr. Dave grew up in central Illinois and attended the University of Illinois, receiving his PhD in Plant Genetics in 1994. Dr. Dave moved to Ohio to work for the Ohio State University as a soybean geneticist. It is there that he began to perform demonstrations at open houses. Dr. Dave’s true love is working with children and getting them excited about science. Beginning in 1998 with a Magic of Soybeans show and DNA Extraction from Onions, Dr. Dave began honing his skills at making science fun and understandable. In 2003 he performed his first Whiz Bang Science Show at OSU’s Wooster campus open house. These proved so popular that he was asked to perform the show at the Wayne County Fair, OSU Bug’s World and Science of Agriculture open houses. Dr. Dave has performed over 400 shows for over 50,000 people. These audiences range from after-school programs, library events, Vacation Bible Schools, conventions, Right-to-Read school assemblies, birthday parties to full production stage shows.

Comments from Teachers, Librarians and Students “I didn’t know how exciting science could be. I will pay attention in class now.” – 4th grader at Wayne County Fair “Dr. Dave’s Whiz Bang Science Show was fun and exciting – we couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen next! What a great way for our children to see science as an amazing world full of surprises, not just another subject in school.” – Jane Braddock, Fredericksburg Community Library “I had the Whiz Bang Science Show come to both of my buildings: Clark K-5 and Nashville K-2. Both assemblies can be described with the same words. Captivating! Interesting! Informative! Dr. Dave knows his science and knows how to relate to students of all ages. I am so glad we had him come and we will definitely have him back.” – Brian Zimmerly, Principal, West Holmes Local School District “Dr. Dave the Whiz Bang Science Guy presents science concepts in a memorable, experiential, and exciting fashion! His clever and friendly personality keeps children of all ages (1-99) coming back for more! My school has been enlightened with many Dr. Lohnes Whiz Bang Shows; featuring concepts from the science behind matter, electricity, mathematics to volcanic eruptions. You can feel his passion for sharing science to others as he explodes, implodes, and mutates fascinating substances in the hopes of educating his audience. We are so fortunate to have him share his gift of science knowledge with the students of our district.” – Kristie Lent, Teacher and Right to Read Week Coordinator, Wooster Township Elementary School “I have had Dr. Dave at the West Salem Branch of the Wayne County Public Library several times over the last ten years, and I can say that the audiences love him every time. He is very easy to work with and puts on a great show for people of all ages. I can certainly say that I enjoy watching as much as the kids do! He combines science with fun to keep the kids engaged and learning. I would highly recommend this performer.” - Debbie Starcher, Branch Manager, Wayne County Public Library, West Salem Call Mrs. Whiz Bang (Donna) at 330-263-4320 to Book a Show
