Clear Channel Communication Disney give-aways?

[Alanna]

They had this same contest two years ago for the 50th anniversary and I won (50th nationwide caller!). My posts about the trip are on here somewhere from way back then, lol. We got special passes for the opening of Soarin' and their big California themed party. I figured they would put us up in one of the value resorts and was very surprised when we received our itinerary and found out we were staying at the Polynesian!

I wonder if our paths have crossed. I worked in radio too. Clear channel now owns one of the stations I worked for on Long Island. I also worked in Manhattan.

I worked for CBS (Infinity) Radio Sales! Where did you work? I sold national air time for CBS. I worked on Park and 41st...across the street from Grand Central.

Hmm, I went looking for the official "rules" of the trip we won and if you don't live within 75 miles on NYC, then I don't think you should enter the 106.7 Lite Fm contest because although the rules on Lite FM's website don't say anything about that, the official rules do. http://www.clearcontests.com/cc-common/section_contests/rules/disney2007.html I don't want anyone to win and then be disqualified.

I think that makes sense. I was thinking that yesterday but assumed that if they drew my name and saw a "513" number that they just wouldn't call! So I'm going to stick to trying to be the 50th nationwide caller! Odds or miniscule but nothing ventured nothing gained right??

Did anyone get a phone call?

Not this gal!

I worked for Eastman Radio & then CBS Radio Rep as an assistant (at Blackrock)
I sold airtime for WALK- FM & then I sold for CBS-FM before I started my family. I really loved the job & miss it terribly

Did anyone find the mickey today? I live in Long Island NY and can enter and I cannot find it anywhere?

They've got it hidden good today! I am bored at work and thought I'd take a quick look and couldn't find it anywhere. I think I looked at every main page in a section but didn't click on every link on a page.....sorry I couldn't help! Good luck and let me know if you find it!

FOUND IT AGAIN! And....I'm in NJ, definitely within 75 miles, but doubtful that I'll win. We never win anything in my household, but I figured I could always try!

Our local Clear Channels have where you can enter on their websites, but no mention of hidden Mickey's or haven't heard nothing about the call in's. I listen to the local country station almost all day and haven't heard anything, maybe if I'm lucky I'll get a phone call about the online drawing!

Yeah I guess it's up to the individual stations to decide how they want to give away trips. It's interesting though that they each do it differently. With the channel I listen to in Cincinnati it's the website entry and the call-in, both of which are national competitions and probably much lower odds of winning. But in NY they have a hidden Mickey on their website and if you find it you can submit an entry and then if your entry gets drawn then you win. So that station gets to give away a trip every day and it only includes local residents so I would imagine the chances of winning are somewhat higher. Although with such a high population in the NY area it probably makes the odds of winning still pretty low.

But good luck to you!! Let us know if you win!!

Yeah, seems like Clear Channel keeps buying more stations, the more they buy, the chance you have of winning, but Hey, worth a shot!
Oh and you can believe if I win, this will be one of the first places I'd tell!!

Thanks for posting the link.

The 16th was the last day to submit an on-line entry for those stations participating in the national drawing. The rules say they will choose a winner within 48 hours of the end of the contest. So....some lucky person will be getting a call saying they won a trip to Disney World soon if they haven't already......

There's nothing better than going to Disney than going for free!!

Once you find it, what do you do?
