KMXT's Volunteer of the Year

Mimi Rosenn is KMXT's 2009 Volunteer of the Year! Mimi has gone above and beyond in giving her time to the station over the past few years. As host of Thursday Night Classical, The World Show and filling in where ever needed, she is wonderful. On her own initiative Mimi organized the World Music Library, into a DJ friendly order. It is so much easier to find specific music in The World Music library now. Thank you Mimi for your dedication and commitment to KMXT, you are AWESOME!

ALOHA!

Island Time Creator and Host Russ Josephson and Vera Benedek are leaving the island. We want to bid them Aloha and wish them the best as they travel to a new, warmer island, Kuai. There will be a farewell potluck for Russ, Vera and Sonny the radio dog, here at the station on Saturday Oct. 3rd from 6 to 10 p.m. For more information call 486-4618

Fall is Falling!

Thank you to everyone who helped out on the air and at the State Fair Booth! You guys are awesome! After a quick, unplanned trip to the lower 48 I'm back. My father, thank goodness, is doing well. He gave the family quite a scare but is now on the road to recovery.

There is much to do now tham I'm back. I would love to hear from you, on-air volunteers. Let me know what shows you would like to host. If all our volunteers came in for one or two shifts a month, everything would be covered! Let's do that, call me. 486-3181 is the number to call.

The Annual Membership Meeting is Saturday September 19th at the 2nd Floor Restaurant. Not a member? You can sign up at the door. Mrs. Kim and family provide a wonderful meal for the event, Board Members are elected and reports given at this annual meeting. Come in and learn about your public radio station.

The Run the Rock Marathon takes place on Saturday October 10th. Stop by and sign up for the Marathon, Half Marathon or 5 K. With the cost of entry you get: a spaghetti dinner on Friday night at the Rondezevous, a T-shirt and BBQ after the race at the Golf Cours Club House. Plus the fun of the event and it all is to support KMXT. What a great way to spend the day I hope to see you there. We can also use volunteer help in a variety of ways. Call the station if you would like to help out.

OK That is it for now. It is good to be back and I look forward to talking to you soon!
