The Koolaz Newsletter September 2021

September 2021 Edition 1 # 11

It’s the September edition of KOOLAZ! Did you know there was a time when September was the seventh month of the year? That was back when the Roman Calendar had only 10^th months and we had month names like Quintillis and Sextillus. Who knew? Just another fun fact we thought we’d share!

IN KOOLAZ THIS MONTH:

We celebrate the life of one of the finest people we know – Super Songbird Karen Smith. Relive her last interview on “Live Tuesday” with Dianne Thomas. Sleep in Peace Beautiful Songbird
It’s Up Close and Personal with two original KOOL DJ’s! They talk about the musical ties that bind with host Yashika Graham.
Our KOOL Client is Pepper Thyme Restaurant – a popular spot for a good lyme in Kingston. Our Traffic Team visited and brought back the story and the pictures.

Happy Birthday September Born! We did the research and came up with a list of characteristics that generally hold true whether you are Virgo or Libra. See if you agree.
You really work hard to achieve your goals, you’re likely to be the most well-mannered person in your group, you truly dislike it when you don’t get the truth, you’re open-minded and yes – you mostly like things to go your way. How well did we capture you? Hit reply if it’s a resounding yessss!

Charming, effervescent, warm-hearted, loving, sincere. That's how we will always remember her. Karen Smith will live on in our hearts as a rare human who lit up the stage of life with her talent and her grace. Listen to the last interview (2018) with Announcer Dianne Thomas and relive a beautiful moment.

SAMPLING AND THE CIRCLE OF MUSIC – Blog

If you grew up in the 80s, you’re probably familiar with “If only for one night” by Luther Vandross – or maybe even Brenda Russell’s 1979 original. But here’s what happened when our youngest Announcer, Yashika Graham, listened to the first bars of the song, waiting expectantly for Bow Wow to chime in. Read the Blog here and remember to leave a comment.
