Compassionate Amazement for Resident Enrichment
Long-term Care Initiative
Our team seeks partnerships with long-term care facilities in the Omaha area - performing close-up magic for an individual resident or small group and/or teaching some residents magic tricks to perform for family and friends.
Our partners have no cost involved.
Please indicate your interest for 2025 consideration.
OUR TEAM LEADER
Steve Osborn
Retired after thirty-four years as an Omaha family physician, Steve Osborn now finds time to pursue his life long interest in magic.
Given his background it makes sense that he now blends his passions of magic and medicine to lead the club’s CARE team.
