A group of students at Vanier Collegiate are preparing for the annual Community Christmas Dinner on November 30th.

This is a chance for families less fortunate to enjoy a proper Christmas dinner during the holiday season.

Keira Zimmerman is one of the students organizing the event. She talked with Mix 103's Calum McAnally.

Saskatchewan recording artist JJ Voss joined Country 100's Courtney Fielder on the Morning Show to discuss his latest music and upcoming live performances. With his new single, "I Wanna Go Home," recently hitting country radio, JJ called in to share the inspiration behind the heartfelt track. He also gave listeners a sneak peek at an exciting live show happening this weekend in Regina.
