A Week of Winning, Wisdom, and Community Spirit!
What another phenomenal week it has been for our Haarlem Family! From gaining meaningful insights from our special guests to launching our very own YouTube channel and celebrating our radio competition winners, the energy in our community is simply unmatched.
📻 Monday: The Most Informative Broadcast Yet
Monday evening’s broadcast of Haarlem Heart Streams (Episode 4) was described by many as our most informative one ever! Hosted by Theo, the show featured incredible virtual studio guests, Mr. Chester Thyssen and Mr. Jan Nienaber, whose meaningful insights resonated deeply with listeners.
The community was buzzing in the chat, with everyone tuning in via the new backup links—because as Theo wisely reminded us, “met al die goggas in die lewe,” it’s always good to have a backup stream ready!
🏆 Radio Competitions & The New YouTube Channel!
The interactive fun continued as listeners were challenged to count the local ad plays. The correct answer was 15 plays featuring our brilliant local businesses: Mike Larry, Woodman Custom Designs, Harri & Co, and Reegz Printings. Although Reagan jokingly admitted he “lost track 🤣🤣🤣,” an impressive 7 people got all the answers perfectly right!
5 lucky winners were awarded prizes, and the excitement was palpable. The winners’ announcement was extra special, as it was recorded all the way from Sweden and premiered as the very first video on the brand-new Haarlem Community YouTube Channel.
The community support poured in instantly:
“Congrats to all the prize winners🔥🔥” — Carmen Harri
“1st time ever that I won anything🙈🤣” — Hulet Billett
“Geluk aan die wenners. Goeie video van trekking🔥” — Reagan Abrahams
🐕 Community Care & Dancing to the Beat
Beyond the prizes, the Haarlem spirit shone through in our care for the community and its furry friends. A touching moment in the chat happened when Eartha “Worms” Scholtz spotted a familiar face in a broadcast video:
“Awwwe there’s our Alex in the passenger seat😊 he was sterilised earlier in June. they’re doing great work in the communities. I’ll continue my donation”
A big shoutout to everyone supporting these community sterilization drives, and to Carika from Haarlem Home-Based Care for her constant gratitude and hard work.
And of course, we can’t forget the music that unites us. The brand-new Haarlem community song continues to be a hit. As Nickey perfectly captured the mood: “Is dit net ek of dans julle ook as die Haarlem song so speel?”
🤝 Keeping the Winning Spirit Alive
Thank you to everyone who tuned in, supported the new YouTube channel, and shared the love in the chat. Let’s keep tuning in and keeping the winning spirit alive. Onward and upward, Haarlem!
‘n Week van Wenners, Wysheid, en Gemeenskapsgees!
Wat nog ‘n fenomenale week was dit nie vir ons Haarlem-familie nie! Van die verkryging van betekenisvolle insigte by ons spesiale gaste tot die bekendstelling van ons eie YouTube-kanaal en die viering van ons radiokompetisie-wenners, die energie in ons gemeenskap is eenvoudig onverbeterlik.
📻 Maandag: Die Mees Leersame Uitsending Tot Dusver
Maandagaand se uitsending van Haarlem Heart Streams (Episode 4) is deur baie beskryf as ons mees leersame een ooit! Die program, aangebied deur Theo, het ongelooflike virtuele ateljeegaste, Mnr. Chester Thyssen en Mnr. Jan Nienaber, ingesluit, wie se betekenisvolle insigte diep by luisteraars aanklank gevind het.
Die gemeenskap het gegons in die kletskamer, en almal het ingeskakel via die nuwe rugsteunskakels—want soos Theo ons wyslik herinner het, “met al die goggas in die lewe,” is dit altyd goed om ‘n ekstra skakel byderhand te hê!
🏆 Radiokompetisies & Die Nuwe YouTube-kanaal!
Die interaktiewe pret het voortgegaan toe luisteraars uitgedaag is om die plaaslike advertensies te tel. Die korrekte antwoord was 15 speelslae wat ons briljante plaaslike besighede ingesluit het: Mike Larry, Woodman Custom Designs, Harri & Co, en Reegz Printings. Alhoewel Reagan skertsend erken het hy het “lost track 🤣🤣🤣,” het ‘n indrukwekkende 7 mense al die antwoorde perfek reg gehad!
5 gelukkige wenners het pryse ontvang, en die opgewondenheid was tasbaar. Die aankondiging van die wenners was ekstra spesiaal, aangesien dit heel van Swede af opgeneem is en as die heel eerste video op die splinternuwe Haarlem Gemeenskap YouTube-kanaal vrygestel is.
Die gemeenskap se ondersteuning het onmiddellik ingestroom:
“Congrats to all the prize winners🔥🔥” — Carmen Harri
“1st time ever that I won anything🙈🤣” — Hulet Billett
“Geluk aan die wenners. Goeie video van trekking🔥” — Reagan Abrahams
🐕 Gemeenskapsorg & Dans op die Maat
Buiten die pryse, het die Haarlem-gees uitgestaan in ons sorg vir die gemeenskap en sy harige vriende. ‘n Treffende oomblik in die kletskamer was toe Eartha “Worms” Scholtz ‘n bekende gesig in ‘n uitsendingsvideo opmerk:
“Awwwe there’s our Alex in the passenger seat😊 he was sterilised earlier in June. they’re doing great work in the communities. I’ll continue my donation”
‘n Groot dankie aan almal wat hierdie gemeenskapsterilisasie-inisiatiewe ondersteun, en aan Carika van Haarlem Home-Based Care vir haar volgehoue dankbaarheid en harde werk.
En natuurlik kan ons nie die musiek vergeet wat ons verenig nie. Die splinternuwe Haarlem-gemeenskapslied bly ‘n treffer. Soos Nickey die stemming perfek opgesom het: “Is dit net ek of dans julle ook as die Haarlem song so speel?”
🤝 Hou die Wengees Lewendig
Dankie aan almal wat ingeskakel het, die nuwe YouTube-kanaal ondersteun het, en die liefde in die kletskamer gedeel het. Kom ons hou aan inskakel en hou die wengees lewendig. Vorentoe en opwaarts, Haarlem!
