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 first winner of the 2021-2022 school year is Mrs. Macy Engle – 3rd Grade Teacher at BCLUW Elementary School. She was nominated by a parent of a student, Jacey Lehman. Here’s what she wrote to Kix 101.1.:
I would like to nominate Mrs. Macy Engle for the Pack the Backpack award. Mrs. Engle teaches 3rd grade at BCLUW, and my daughter is in her class. My daughter has so much enthusiasm and excitement about school this year, and I think it is due to the excitement and enthusiasm Mrs. Engle brings to the classroom each day.
Outfitting a classroom has to be a daunting task–especially when you’re just out of college and starting from scratch. This is Mrs. Engle’s first year teaching, so it would be great to see her win the Pack the Backpack award to help build up the supplies in her classroom.
Thank you for your consideration of Mrs. Engle!

In Theaters this weekend: “They Will Kill You”
Is a blood-soaked, high-octane horror-action-comedy in which a young woman must survive the night at the “Virgil”. A mysterious and twisted death-trap of a lair, big screen battle of epic kills and wickedly dark humor.

Welcome to The List,
Hookup shows come and go. Paychecks apparently stay forever. Taylor Frankie Paul will still get her full Bachelorette salary. TMZ says the payday lands in the low to mid six figures. The season got shelved after that viral domestic violence video resurfaced. Reality TV motto. Love fades. Direct deposit survives.
-----
Some guys jog. Some guys apparently brawl with neighbors. “Reacher” star Alan Ritchson reportedly got into a physical altercation. Sources say intense behavior is kind of his brand at this point. He doesn’t think he crossed a line. Neither does the authorities,
-----
Country star meets horsepower. This feels aggressively on brand. Darius Rucker is now a NASCAR Cup Series team owner. He invested in Legacy Motor Club which competes at the top level. From singing about wagons to literally owning fast cars. That is what we call career acceleration.
-----
If you like free music. Nashville just planned your summer. CMA Fest announced around 150 artists for daytime stages. Names include Ernest, Melissa Etheridge, Tucker Wetmore, more. The free shows run June fourth through seventh downtown. Wallet stays full. Voice will absolutely not.
You can catch The List, weekday afternoons at 4:20 with Jonathan Knight. Only on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1
