Mix 97.7's General Contest Rules

At Mix 97.7, we we like to say “Thank You For Listening” by giving away all kinds of cool free stuff!.... but the corporate overlords do have some rules so that it’s fair for everyone.
All contest winners must be 18 years or older.  Only one prize will be awarded to an individual during any 30 day period. Once a prize has been awarded, it will not be exchanged for another prize. All Grand Prize winners are selected at random from valid entries.  There may be more than one method of entry for a qualify to win contest. All winners are required to show a valid form of ID to claim their prize. Winners have 30 days to claim their prize. Mix 97.7 may request the winner to sign a release form or tax forms.  Some prizes MUST be picked up at our main office on Pendell Road in Poughkeepsie during normal business hours. Some prizes are time sensitive, such as concert tickets.  If these prizes are not claimed in time for the event, Mix 97.7 will not exchange them for another prize.  Any taxes, gratuities or additional expenses incurred by claiming or using the prize are the responsibility of the winner.  Some contests may have special requirements, specifications or other rules. Mix 97.7 management may substitute prizes based on availability, cancel a contest or promotion or alter these rules at any time. By calling our studio line (454-9770), the listener grants Mix 97.7 permission to either air their call live or record their call and play it back at a later time.  No purchase is required to enter or participate in contests on Mix 97.7 or at station appearances. Decisions pertaining to contests made by Mix 97.7 management are final. Employees of the Cumulus Media Group and their families, affiliated companies, client sponsors and their families are not eligible to win contests conducted by Mix 97.7. Our contest rules are available for public viewing at our website, mix97fm.com, and during normal business hours at our main office on Pendell Road in Poughkeepsie.
Having said that, keep listening for your chance to win some cool free stuff from
