Pack the Backpack, presented by Central Office Supply, a division of Minuteman and Kix 101.1! Each month during the school year, we will be awarding $101 to a Kix Country classroom to help out with supplies. We will award the prize on the last Wednesday of the month. You can listen to each new winner at 8:30a on the Morning Kix Start.
Our January winner is 5th Grade Math/Science Teacher, Mrs. Karen Roseland at East Marshall Middle School. She was nominated by a grandparent and student that is in Mrs. Roseland’s class. Here is what Tracy and Sophia wrote to Kix 101.1.:
Sophia Raye Juarez would like to nominate, Mrs. Karen Roseland, her 5th grade teacher at East Marshall middle school. Sophia has been out of school with a brain tumor since October 5, 2021. Mrs. Roseland has been in touch with Sophia and I, her grandma every week. When we sold bracelets for Sophia, Mrs. Roseland and her family purchased them for Sophia’s whole grade.
We want to help Mrs. Roseland out by having her get what she needs to teach her class. So Sophia hopes you chose Mrs. Roseland for this special contest.

What weather event happens when warm air and cold air meet?
Welcome to The List,
Hollywood lost a true action legend today. Chuck Norris, the martial arts star and longtime “Walker, Texas Ranger” icon, has died at age 86, according to statements from his family. Beyond the screen, his larger-than-life reputation exploded online through viral “Chuck Norris facts,” turning him into one of pop culture’s most enduring memes.
-----
Arnold is back forging steel abs in Venice - Schwarzenegger is grinding at the legendary Gold’s Gym again, training for a Conan sequel. He wants real muscles on screen, even if Hollywood quietly sprinkles in some CGI seasoning.
-----
Luke Combs battled wings like a true warrior - Luke became the first country star on Hot Ones, turkey calling between bites and comparing spicy wings to a home invasion. Nashville just found a new extreme sport.
-----
Lainey, Riley, and Cody bringing stadium energy - The ACM Awards are heading to Vegas, and this trio is set to light up the MGM Grand stage. Rhinestones, roar, and probably at least one cowboy hat thrown in victory.
You can catch The List, weekday afternoons at 4:20 with Jonathan Knight. Only on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1
