Vernon, B.C. – The Bubble Man (a.k.a. Geoff Akins) is the most recent recipient of Sutton Group – Lakefront Realty’s sponsorship program. REALTORS® regularly donate to the sponsorship fund, which is awarded quarterly. The team welcomes nominations of people who are trying to better themselves and society. During COVID-19, Geoff Akins has had to adapt his live show for virtual audiences, but his message remains the same: with determination, a person can accomplish what is seemingly impossible.
“Geoff tours North America with his inspirational show using bubbles,” says Tara Sopel, the Office Manager at Sutton Group – Lakefront Realty. “He starts out basic but progresses into more difficult bubble shapes to show his audience that when he puts his mind to it and with a little patience and persistence, he can make a square bubble! (Yes a square bubble!) The moral of his show is: don't give up and keep trying!”
On August 20, 2020, Geoff visited the office to collect his sponsorship cheque for $375. As a thank you, he treated the realty team to a spontaneous bubble show. Geoff plans to use the funds to host more virtual shows, which he began experimenting with out of necessity when the pandemic began in March.
Tara explains that the Bubble Man sets up his screen so that he can see his viewers and see if someone in the audience has questions or comments—just as if he were in front of a live audience. View the magic at www.bubblewonders.com.
“With everything going on, it is great to see that there are people out there trying to help keep the morale of others up!” says Tara. “We wish Geoff much success in his bubble shows!”
