It's that time of year again. School's out for the summer, the birds are chirping, the snow has melted, and it's time to honor the best of the best that CJLO has to offer. That's right, it's Diego Award time!

The Diego Awards Ceremony is CJLO's annual best of, and demonstrates the amazing talent that we have here at the station. Nominations range from best in each genre category to broadcasting excellence. We also give nods to our amazing volunteers who work tirelessly to keep this place going!

What a day April 2nd was: it went up to 27 degrees.  So needless to say, I did not at all feel like being inside on any level.

When I managed to come out of my summer-like tizzy… I remembered that I had the Black Rebel Motorcycle Club concert to go to and off to La Tulipe I went. I so did not feel like being inside, but I do love listening to this band, so I made the ultimate sacrifice of leaving the most amazing weather ever for that time of year and was I ever thankful that I did.
