Our speaker will be DAN MEERS - KC Wolf Needs Employee Benefits Too.
“For those who have watched Dan perform as KC Wolf, it’s easy to see that he is quite a character. For those of us who know the man inside the costume, it is obvious he is also a man of character. Hearing his incredible story will not only give you an appreciation for Dan Meers the mascot but, more importantly, for Dan Meers, the man behind the mask.”
— Tony Dungy, former NFL head coach
"KC Wolf may be big with his 85 inch hips, but bad, not a chance. Everyone loves this wolf, including Little Red Riding Hood. Since his introduction to Chiefs fans in 1989, KC Wolf has quickly become one of the most entertaining mascots in professional sports.
One thing that sets KC Wolf apart from other mascots is the fact that he is also in high demand as a humorous and motivational speaker. KC Wolf is portrayed by Dan Meers, and averages more than 150 speaking engagements each year throughout the United States.
What makes Dan truly special is that he is as equally entertaining out of his costume. He goes to work each day like many other men, dressed in a suit. The only difference is that instead of wearing a tie with his suit, he wears a tail. Dan's work as KC Wolf and his experiences as a professional sports mascot have reinforced to him the philosophy that laughter and a cheerful heart are good medicine. He is also a firm believer that when you learn to think only of the best and work on for the best, you can start to expect the best!
Dan speaks to audiences of all ages at schools, churches, businesses, banquets and many other gatherings. His enthusiasm, optimism, faith, and love for life are contagious and make him an inspiration to all those around him. Audiences remember Dan not only as KC Wolf but more as a man who inspired and encouraged them to live life to the fullest." [Chiefs website]
