50 Keys to Spring Contest Rules


From April 3 to May 5, there will be four different ways to become one of 50 finalists. You must be 21 or older to enter this contest.

One way is to listen for the ‘cue to call’ for a chance to be one of the 25 finalists that will be chosen on air between April 3rd and May 5th. Every weekday morning between April 3rd and May 5th Brad and John will solicit calls during the Brad and John show and have one semi-finalist each weekday morning resulting in 25 total finalists.

You can also register to be a finalist at Mt Baker Moto Sports between April 3rd and May 5th by 12pm. To enter, listeners must find the QR code at Mt. Baker Moto Sports which will lead them to an Aptivada entry form where they are required to fill out their first and last name, phone number, date of birth, gender, and zip code. Entrants can enter using this method once per day. The only way to access this entry form is through the QR code. Entrants must agree to terms for Aptivada through KISM.com and go through the complete registration process. 10 total finalists will be randomly selected on May 5th and notified accordingly.

The third way to become a finalist is through a registration form on location during two remotes held on April 8th and April 22nd from 11:30am – 1:30pm.  KISM will be on location at Mt. Baker Moto Sports for 2 hours promoting a registration entry form where listeners must enter their first and last name, phone number, date of birth, gender, and zip code for a chance to qualify as a finalist. This entry is separate from the QR code entry form that will be on location between April 3rd and May 5th at 12pm. 10 finalists will be selected this way, 5 from each separate remote. Finalists will be notified at the end of each remote.

The fourth is to register to be a ‘last chance finalist’, during the giveaway event on May 6th.  Last chance registration will take place at Mt Baker Moto-Sports on May 6th between 11:00am-12:00pm.  KISM will randomly select 5 last chance finalists at 12:01p to be included in the grand prize giveaway.

Entrants and winners will be chosen at the sole discretion of KISM. Listeners who wish to enter drawing must fully complete registration.

Grand Prize winner will be determined at the Grand Prize Award Remote event on May 6th, 2023 from 11:30am to 1:30pm. From 11am-12pm, last chance registration will take place. At 12:01 pm, 5 last chance finalists will be drawn and entered into the contest.

KISM will randomly draw names to determine the order that finalists select envelopes. There will be 50 numbered envelopes, 10 of which will have a key in them, with one of the keys being the key that turns on the ATV. The giveaway will be held at Mt. Baker Moto Sports. Each finalist will get the chance to select an envelope, 10 envelopes will include a key. One of the 10 keys will turn on the ATV grand prize and the finalist who chooses that key will be the winner.

The grand prize winner will receive:

2022 ZForce 950 Sport (Mercury Silver)

The total prize value is $13,399. The prize winner is responsible for all taxes. Prize not transferrable nor redeemable for cash.

Each of the finalists from The Brad and John Show, the QR Code at Mt. Baker Moto and from the remotes, including last chance finalists, will win a qualifying prize of one $30 gift card to Twin Sisters Restaurant for a total 50 qualifying prizes given away to 50 finalists.

Entrants and winners will be chosen at the sole discretion of KISM. Listeners who wish to enter drawing must fully complete registration.

The grand prize winner will pick up their prize from the sponsor directly (Mt. Baker Moto Sports) except for the $30 Twin Sisters Restaurant gift cards. The gift cards will be mailed to finalists by Cascade Radio Group. Since the grand prize will not be in the possession of Cascade Radio Group/SAGA Communications, we will not be requiring tax information from the grand prize winner.

Finalists are ineligible to send someone else to represent them at the event, each finalist must be present. Any entry submitted on behalf of another individual or using another person’s email address or name will be disqualified and ineligible to claim any prize.  Any attempt by any participant to obtain more than the stated number of entries allowed by using same, multiple/different email addresses, identities, or any other methods void that participant’s entries, and that participant may be disqualified. In the event of a dispute as to any on-line registration, the authorized account holder of the e-mail address used to register will be deemed to be the registrant and he/she must be eligible according to these Official Rules. No mechanically reproduced or automated entries permitted.  Use of any automated system to participate is prohibited and will result in disqualification and all such entries will be deemed void.

No purchase necessary. KISM’s sole responsibility will be to award the prize.
