Sarasota Earthdance was held on September
16th on the grounds of the Crosley Mansion. It was a wonderful
event filled with music, dancing, and good spirits. WSLR
was one of the beneficiary's of the event this year. Organizers
of the event, Matthew Reynolds and Normen Schindowski, presented
the station with a check for $1300 at WSLR's First Annual
Volunteer Appreciation Event in October. Thanks to Normen
and Matthew and all the other hard-working volunteers that
made this event possible.

WSLR's
Youngest DJ makes the Guinness Book of World Records
WSLR
is proud to now be the home of "The World's Youngest
Radio DJ" - an official Guinness World Record designation
awarded to Joshua Rabow who hosts "The Saturday Morning
Cartoon Show" with his older brother Aaron on the first
and third Saturdays of every month from 9-10 a.m. Joshua
and Aaron launched the show back in March when Joshua was
still 7 years-old and Aaron was 10.
The idea to approach Guinness was actually
Joshua's own idea after his dad, Steve Rabow, suggested
in jest that Joshua was probably the youngest D.J. in the
world. But when Joshua asked his dad if he thought there
might be a chance to get into the Guinness Record Book Steve
took the question very seriously. Their efforts paid off
and now the "title" belongs to our (and the world's)
youngest radio D.J. In 2005, when he was 6 years-old, Joshua
was a Florida Studio Theater's Young Playwright Festival
Award Winner beating out over 5000 other plays submitted
from around the world. His play was titled: "How To
Keep Your Pants Up!" Joshua and Aaron attend New Gate
School. Congratulations again from all of us at WSLR!!

WSLR Sees a Lot
of Potential Strength in Low-Power FM
Florida Media Project reports "Sarasota
Radio Station Sees a Lot of Potential Strength in Low-Power
FM."
"On-air personnel at one of this West Coast city’s
newest local radio stations identify it repeatedly not just
by its call letters – WSLR – but also by its license
category – LPFM, which stands for low-power FM.
"The station is a unique animal in the Sarasota audio
jungle – and one of just a few in all of Florida listening
land." |
