3. Contest Entry

No purchase is necessary to enter any contest. Contest entries may be submitted through various methods, including but not limited to, online forms, email submissions, telephone calls, and participation via social media platforms, as detailed in the specific contest description. Unless otherwise specified, each participant is permitted a single entry per contest per day.

The Radio Station reserves the sole right to substitute any prize, in whole or in part, with a prize of equal or greater value in the event of unforeseen circumstances. All prize winners are required to present valid government-issued photo identification to claim their prize. Failure to provide such identification may result in forfeiture of the prize. Prizes must be claimed within thirty (30) days of notification unless otherwise stated. Any unclaimed prize shall be forfeited, and the Radio Station shall not be obligated to provide any substitute or alternative prize.

5. Winner Selection and Notification

Winners shall be selected through a random draw unless otherwise specified in the contest rules. The Radio Station shall attempt to contact the selected winner using the contact information provided at the time of entry. If the selected winner does not respond within seven (7) days of initial contact, the prize shall be forfeited, and an alternate winner may be selected at the sole discretion of the Radio Station. The Radio Station shall not be responsible for any failed attempts to contact the winner due to incorrect or outdated contact information.
