SACRAMENTO REGION, CA (MPG) – Carmichael-based magicians Dale and Elaine Lorzo are taking their magic to the Sacramento Scottish Rite, 6151 H St., on April 17 for a Kids Carnival and Magic Show fundraiser benefiting children’s communication.

The family-friendly event will offer food, games, community connection and Dale Lorzo’s Magic Miracles following a casual dinner. The magician, joined by Miss Elaine, has taken his talents across Sacramento performing for seniors, schools and community events for more than 50 years. The Lorzos’ show involves audience participation, humor and good-old fashioned magic.

The duo are members of the Carmichael Chamber of Commerce, with Dale previously serving on the board of directors. The Lorzos are also members of the Society of American Magicians, the International Brotherhood of Magicians and the the Academy of Magical Arts.

“Magic is fun and that’s what this whole thing is about, putting a smile on your face and make your day bigger, brighter and happier,” said Dale. “The same thing that the language center does is make kids smile who are maybe shy and because they can’t communicate. And then after awhile they can carry a conversation.”

The RiteCare Scottish Rite Childhood Language Program (SRCLP) is dedicated to helping preschool aged children who have difficulty speaking or understanding the spoken word or school-age children who have difficulty learning to read. By supporting children who may have remained educationally behind, these children can now thrive and lead productive lives alongside their peers. All services are available regardless of race, religion or income.
