2. How to Enter/Selection of Winner
From Saturday, March 30, 2024 and ends on Friday, May 10, 2024 in the 10p MST hour, participants can sign up in the KBear 101 and/or Alt 101 Apps for a chance to be contacted to identify the “Secret Sound”.
Each weekday beginning Monday, April 31, 20234, and for the remainder of the Contest, participants that have signed up in the KBear 101 and/or Alt 101 Apps will be called at random to give their guess at the secret sound. If the participant identifies the sound correctly they will win the current jackpot amount. If the participant guesses incorrectly, an additional $25 will be added to the money currently in the prize pot unless the maximum allotted amount for the promotion has been reached. Once a correct answer is received for the current sound the prize pot goes back to $101.00 and a new secret sound will be utilized until it is either correctly identified or until the end of the contest. Incorrect guesses will be posted at a link in the KBear 101 and Alt 101 Apps to aid participants in determining the identity of the secret sound.
Entrants must give their permission to be broadcast in order to be officially declared the winner. In the event the entrant does not give their permission to be broadcast, that person will not be declared the winner, and the selection process will be repeated immediately until a winner is determined.
The Station reserves the right to preempt or not broadcast the Contest on any given day due to programming commitments, technical difficulties, and/or any reason the management of KCVI-FM determines to be reasonable and necessary. All decisions of the judges and/or administrators of the Contest are final.
