Early To Bed, Early To Pledge

My planned evening of watching hockey was interrupted by my need for sleep as I'm going to have some fun tomorrow morning. As you may know, 101.5 CJUM-FM - where The Hockey Show is aired - is currently running its fundraising telethon until 8pm CT on Friday. The effort is going well as we near the $20,000 mark of the $28,000 goal set by management this year, so thank you to everyone who has donated already and everyone who will be donating to a show that occurs later in the week. The listeners that support UMFM always come through in big ways, and we're so grateful to have your support to make the station better!

All of the details are here for why Pledge-O-Rama is happening, and there's an opportunity to get some great UMFM shwag with your donation. As with any donation, tax receipts are also available if you're looking to one-up the tax man in 2024, so choose wisely when it comes to what you want. In both cases, you're getting something great for helping us out, and we're happy to do that as a show of our appreciation for your support. If you haven't donated or weren't aware you could support the station in this manner, the details are directly above for getting your pledge into the station and where you ask any questions about the nature of Pledge-O-Rama and for what we'll be using the money.

As for me, I'll be up before the sun breaks over the horizon as I'll be working the Wednesday edition of the UMFM Pledge Morning Show from 6-10am, so that means a 4:30am alarm has been set. I'll be playing lots of newer Canadian music along with a few key older Canadian musicians, I'll have some music news to report, and we'll have a blast setting up your Wednesday as you get set in the morning.

Speaking of which, that's coming quickly, so I'm off to bed. See you on the UMFM Pledge Morning Show tomorrow, and thanks for supporting great local radio that's a part of your community!

Until next time, keep your sticks on the ice!
