From September 16, 2024 to October 25, 2024, listen each weekday from 6:00am to 6:00pm for the Grand In Your Hand contest keyword(s).

Four keywords will be given each day, Monday through Friday, at various times of the day between 6am and 6pm.

Once you hear a keyword, go to KISM.com to the Grand In Your Hand contest page. Complete the registration, including the correct contest keyword, for the chance to win $1,000 (ARV: $1,000 – Face value of check).

Listeners will have until the end of the day (11:59pm) to enter the four keywords before they expire. There will be a maximum entry of four times per day. There will be a possibility of 120 entries during the duration of the contest.

One winner per day will be randomly chosen from all eligible entrants on the following business day (9/17/2024-10/28/2024) and notified by phone and email. Each winner will be awarded $1,000. The phone number from the chosen entry will be called and the reaction recorded for broadcast after receiving the winner’s permission to record and broadcast the conversation.  If the chosen entrant is notified by email, voicemail, or other answering device, he or she will have 24 hours from the time we contact them to respond.  If the chosen entrant does not contact us back within the time limit, he or she will be disqualified, and another winner will be chosen from all eligible entrants.  This process will continue until a winner is identified.  There will be 30 winners, for a total of $30,000 given away. We will make reasonable efforts to award Prizes within 30 days after winning. The winner will be notified by phone when the check is ready for pick up at the station.

KISM will conduct this contest concurrently and simultaneously with other affiliated radio stations, and in various states.  Listeners of KISM will, therefore, be competing with listeners of other radio stations to win the same prize.  No purchase necessary. In the case of any query or discrepancy, the winner will ultimately be decided at the sole discretion of Saga Communications, Inc.
