WTIP's "Cabin Fever" Membership Drive: Amount raised and drawing results

WTIP's "Cabin Fever" membership drive wrapped up at noon, February 22.  Our overall goal for the drive was $18,500, and over the course of four and a half days we heard from 29 new members and 193 renewing members, raising $17,848.  It was a great drive, and we appreciate the support of everyone who pledged, as well as all of the volunteers, community members and local businesses and organizations that helped in some way! 
 
If you didn't get the chance to pledge, you can still show your support and help us reach the $18,500 needed to get a strong start on our membership budget for the year.  It’s quick and easy to make a pledge online, or – during normal business hours – you can give us a call at 387-1070 or stop by the station at 1712 West Highway 61.  
 
And just a reminder, if you did make a pledge during the drive, you can see the complete list of winners on our website from our end-of-drive drawing.  Prizes can be picked up at the station (during normal business hours), or winners can call the station to make other arrangements.

WTIP would like to thank everyone that shared their time and talent or provided a donation of some sort during the drive, including:

• Over 30 volunteers that hosted on air (this is in addition to staff)
• Over 20 community members that answered phones
• Over 20 community members or businesses that provided food or snacks for volunteers, staff and visitors to the station
• Over 8 local bands/ensembles that shared wonderful LIVE MUSIC
• And over 30 of WTIP’s underwriters (local businesses and organizations), that donated various gifts for our ‘end-of-drive’ prize drawing.  Not only do these businesses and organizations support WTIP’s programming financially, they’ve provided gifts to help YOU as well…to help cure your cabin fever!

Again, thanks to our wonderful listener-members and community for supporting WTIP...radio that beats the winter blues!
