He brings high class status to this race with his state of the art performance and sound system. Besides performing and emceeing at events, composing original music, and playing for parties, he is also a top notch music teacher with an energetic, upbeat style that kids thrive on. No more boring piano lessons here! As parents, we like that he teaches in the home and that he makes it so fun for the kids.

Sponsorship Opportunities
 All Diamond Kid sponsorship donations are tax deductible. It is your sponsorship dollars that make this race possible, as the timing chips, pool upkeep (you will be swimming in the most historic, oldest, still running community pool in Nevada), and the needs of the hungry in Las Vegas (see charity drive) don’t pay for themselves. This is a non-profit event, who’s primary focus has always been the children; to provide a positive, active, learning, growing, athletic, confidence-building, memorable, and fun event for them. We appreciate your help and support to make this possible.
