The History
1953-2013
Joe Hazi loved going to live music events at bars and restaurants on St. Croix. He wanted people to know where to find that music, so in 2008, he started a weekly email to spread the news. The first musician to be listed by Joe was Kurt Schindler, soon followed by Michael Justis and Steve Katz, and the first two people to receive his weekly email were Valerie Peiser and Michael Justis. Whenever Joe met people who shared the love for live music, he asked for their email address and added them to the list.
In 2009, Bob Sifniades suggested that Joe convert the list to a website so anybody could find the info. In April 2010, Bob and his wife Jamila Hammad designed and programmed the first website, and on July 1, 2010, StCroixCalendar.com was launched with Joe as the editor. The website continued the weekly email feature, and at the time there were about 400 Subscribers. In July 2013, Joe passed away, and Bob took over as the editor, at Joe’s prior request, and with the assistance of Joe’s wife Holly Hazi. In 2014, Jamila began helping Bob to edit the calendar and thus was born the moniker JamBo (Jamila and Bob).
In the fall of 2017, Bob and Jamila developed a case of wanderlust and, keeping St. Croix as a home base, set off exploring other parts of the world. They knew they wanted to find someone who loves promoting St. Croix as much as they do to manage the calendar. They approached Coldwell Banker St Croix Realty about taking over and were thrilled when team members, Corinne and Renee, took over as co-editors of the calendar.
As Coldwell Banker grew, the office became too busy selling paradise to continue editing the calendar, so in June 2019 they were excited to hand the reins to Cindy, founder and editor of My-StCroix.com
Having known Joe and his love for the island, we are excited to continue Joe’s legacy of sharing all the great entertainment and events across the island of St Croix.
