We have announced our annual "JD's Sneakers for Students" campaign, and Alonzo Mourning from the Miami Heat has helped kick it off well by donating game worn apparel for auction, and 50 pairs of sneakers from Nike! Dwayne Wade donated 50 sneakers from Converse too, but we still need many many more. We will be auctioning off Zo's shoes on Friday starting at 8am and ending at 9:30am, next Tuesday we will be auctioning off Wade's game worn, autographed jersey next Wednesday the 2nd of August from 8am until 9:30am, and then Shaq's autographed game worn jersey on Friday the 4th of August from 8am until 9:30am. Listen in to find out what we raise, and if you want to donate check out the JD and the Wake Up Crew web page for details!
Tiny is back from vacation, and so things are getting back to normal...whatever back to normal is!!
Channel Five news came into the studio today to film us about the Sneakers for Students campaign, and they stayed for about half an hour asking questions, and monitoring what was going on in the studio. It's funny because when you watch the bit on the news, it only lasts for about 2-3 minutes, just showing you the wonderful world of TV editing!
Lots of interviews this week, so tune in, and we will see you in the morning!

Women Win!
Well the women won Battle of the Sexes AGAIN!! This means we will have to come up with a challenge for JD to do...hmmm!
This week is flying by! I went out with a sales person yesterday to a new client "Creative Creations", also known as Beads Gone Wild! We are putting together a class just for our listeners to attend, and you will have to win it. Each person that wins will get to attend the class with me, and get their own kit to design a piece of jewelry..Fun!
We are working out all the details, and will start it soon.
I also visited another client today, and we discussed me endorsing their buisiness...more details soon, but I am very excited about this because it involves something that I have been thinkng about doing for a while now.
Our annual Song of the Day contest is getting ready to kick off again, and for all of you out there you know what that means...
a new car will be awarded to the person who wins the correct key to start the car! More details on the car are coming, but this is an awesome contest that draws a ton of people.
I have been talking with the my friends over at the animal rescue league about their annual "Fur Ball" It is next saturday night, and is for a great cause that I hold close to my heart...the animals of course! You can get information on their web site: www.hspb.org.
That is really all for now, we're talking to Vince Gill later this week so be sure to tune in and find out what is new with him!
See you in the morning!

Schedules!!
Well, my vacation is over, JD is back, and so now that leaves Tiny and Bill to take their vacations!
Tiny will be out next week which means we all have to pitch in to cover him...NOT an easy task. Tiny answers the phones when listeners call to try and win a prize, make a comment, request a birthday, and sometimes (very rarely of course) when listeners call to complain too! In addition to that he is responsible for making sure Battle of the Sexes questions are all set up, and he really is the link between the sales staff, promotion staff and us! He does a bunch more, but this is just a little of what Bill JD and myself will cover while he is out.
Bill will be out on Monday too, so that means I get to do the news! I am still not seasoned at this at all so I always ask that people have patience...you will find my news usually will contain big breaking stories, but then a bunch of entertainment type stuff, and of course sports (I love it!). By the time August gets here we will be back to normal, but for now...hold on!
Don't forget JD's "Big Thank You"...It is an opportunity to say thanks to someone who has touched your life in some special way, and maybe you were never able to say thanks in the unique way you wanted to. Panera Bread is our sponsor, and they provide gift certificates to the ones we read on the air! Just go to our web site, click on JD and the Wake Up Crew, and scroll down for all the details.
Well, I am off to Detroit this weekend to stand in a friends wedding, but will return on Monday...see you in the morning!

Vacation!!
Well, I am on vacation this week, but I wanted to post some of the pictures from the Gretchen Wilson show at the Seminole Hard Rock Casino last Thursday night.
Gretchen put on a awesome show, and even played some rock tunes!! She sang Heart's "Barracuda"...if you weren't seeing that it was her you would have thought you were really listening to Heart!
I know we are a Country station, but I listen to everything, and Friday night Kelly Clarkson put on a terrific show too...She played at the Ampitheater to a packed house, and the crowd was definately not disappointed. I am have put a picture or two up from that show too.
We have finally put everything together for the 4th of July, and some of the on-air saff will be at your favorite places for the fireworks...
Mitch, Bill, Tiny, and JR will be out giving reports after 6pm on the 4th, so listen in to find out where everyone will be!
Finally, have a safe and happy fourth of July, and I'll see you next week!
