mission statement of supporting the blues and doing our part to keeping the
genre alive and flourishing. It’s the children that legacy will fall to.” Kool
Breeze adds that, “It’s all about the kids.”

management team, Rich Strunck, Katrina Kenton, and Bill Kenton are extremely
excited about the Half Pint Blues offering including the initiative and follow
through exhibited by Kool Breeze. Said Bill, “She has a great idea and she’s
taken the ball and is running with it.”
Kool Breeze has been in contact

will primarily be geared towards elementary to middle school age children. The
show is scheduled to begin on January 5th and will air at 5pm EST on Mondays and

hours if so desired.
