The Power Team performs at Ebenezer Mennonite Feb. 26-March 2
The Power Team will perform at Ebenezer Mennonite Church, Wednesday through Sunday, Feb. 26-27-28 and March 1-2. They will also present an assembly at Bluffton High School at 10 a.m., Friday, Feb. 28.
Performances are 7 p.m. on each evening except on Sunday, March 2, when the performance is at 4 p.m.
The Power Team is a group of world class athletes who have performed the world’s greatest exhibitions of power, strength, speed, inspiration, and motivation in every state and in over 40 countries for almost 40 years.
These giant men, many weighing over 300 pounds, can blow up hot water bottles like balloons, snap baseball bats like twigs, lift telephone poles overhead, rip phone books and license plates like pieces of paper, and smash walls of ice and concrete.
The Power Team has several world record holders, former NFL football players, and professional wrestlers. They have been endorsed by over 50 governors, senators, and congressmen for their positive contribution to the lives of America’s youth.
In 1976, The Power Team became the “Original” strength team, utilizing feats of strength to
communicate positive messages to audiences in churches, civic centers, stadiums, and coliseums all across the nation, as well as the world.
The team has been featured in People Magazine, The Saturday Evening Post, and on the popular TV show, Walker, Texas Ranger, and most recently, several appearances on Steve Harvey’s Big Time Show on the WB, watched by an estimated 20 million. They have also been featured on ABC, NBC, CBS and CNN, and even spoofed on Saturday Night Live and Mad TV on the Fox network.
For over 10 years they have had their own television show called The Power Connection, viewed by millions around the world each week.
The Power Team has performed in almost 30,000 school assemblies over the past 30 years, and is ranked as one of the top school assemblies in the nation. Believing that inspiration and motivation equals academic and personal achievement, they tackle the tough issues of drugs, alcohol, violence, abstinence, peer pressure, and suicide.
