General Contest Rules
We invite all our members to participate in the many contest we have. In order to make it fun and fair for everyone we have just a few rules we ask you to follow.
1) Watch for any age restrictions. Each contest may have it's own age limitation and if so it will be listed on the entry form. If there is no age limit listed, anyone is eligible to enter.
2) Though we realize some people are just luckier than others, we ask that if you have recently won something, say in the last 30 days, that you resist the temptation of entering the next contest. Let's give someone else a chance, shall we? However, if your neighbor wins front row tickets and want to take you, well that's just part of being lucky I guess.
3) Prizes should be claimed within 30 days. We have a small building and quite honestly if winners don't pick up their prizes we just run out of space. Please know that your forfieted prize will be recycled and given away to some other lucky winner. It's all apart of the circle of life. Prizes can be picked up at 34545 Hwy 20 SE Albany Oregon at the studios of HOPE 107.9 and KWIL 790 AM.
4) Occassionally we get really crazy and giveaway a prize over $600. Sure, I know we mostly giveaway concert tickets and CD's but I did say "occassionally." If you are lucky enough to win one of the "Big Prizes" , or a number of medium prizes totally up to $600 in a calendar year, you will receive a little something extra. It's called a 1099 form. You see Uncle Sam loves to collect taxes and when you win $600 or more in a calendar year. I know, it seems silly but just remember this isn't our rules it's the IRS's rules. We just make sure we follow them.
5) Part of the joy of giving things away is hearing the excitement in your voice when you win. So by accepting our prizes you allow us to use your name, voice, photo or likeness with others listeners. Many times we may air these on HOPE 107.9 so, if we call with the good news, sound excited OK? Hoot and holler and jump up and down and go crazy.
6) Now for the bad news to the staff. The employees of Extra Mile Media, HOPE 107.9 or KWIL 790 AM and their relatives are ineligible to win the prizes. Sorry gang!
7) Our last item is a bit more legal mumbo jumbo. We reserve the right to stop any promotion or contest at any time for any reason. Though it's very unlikely, the possibility does exist that events beyond our control may cause a contest or promotion to become inappropriate or even offensive. Probably it will never happen but just to be on the safe side, now you know.
8) None of our contest will ever require a purchase of any kind.
If anyone claiming to be a representative of Extra Mile Media, HOPE 1079, KWIL 790 The Word or this website asks you to buy anything in order to enter a contest, please hang up immediately and contact us. You can call us at 541-926-2233 or email us at randy@hope1079.com
9) Odds of winning one of our contests is dependent upon the total number of contestants who enter. If you don't understand this, consult an old math teacher and they can explain it to you.
10) Finally, have fun and be sure to share the luck. When you win a pair of concert tickets take someone who needs a little hope. If you win something and know someone who would really love to have it, I say give it to them. Your kindness will always be rewarded.
