Radio-thon Helps Generate over $204,000 for Events Center

Pledges continued to come in even after the radio telethon on Wednesday morning.  KVSH teamed up with the Cherry County Visitors Promotion Board to host the radio-thon to help raise money and awareness about the community events center in Valentine.

When the first two hours were done, listeners had pledged over $60,000.  During the day more than another $15,000 was pledged to the project. By the end of the day the total came in even higher at $102,400. Thanks to the generous matching offer from Butler Vet Clinic in Valentine, that amount will be doubled to an unofficial $204,800.

Don’t forget the reverse raffle event on October 11th at the former Shopko building. The winner could walk away with $20,000. Tickets are available at the visitor’s center or any board member including Rich Mercure, Kim Epke, Sarah Ferguson, Anne Clark or Greg Nollett.

Area residents are invited to visit a new website to find answers to questions about the events center.  The site is; its time valentine.com.
