Public Service Announcement

GUIDELINES FOR PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENTS

Coast105, KDEP-FM, and KIX96, KIXT-FM, are pleased to run public service announcements about non-profit activities and events in Tillamook County. To help organizations and individuals wishing to submit public service announcements, we have developed the following guidelines:

1.  The event or activity must be non-profit. If a profit-making business is involved, the proceeds must be benefiting a non-profit organization. However, we will not run free announcements for an event for which paid advertising has been purchased elsewhere.
2. The event or activity must be in Tillamook County. Due to the volume of requests and limitations on air-time, we cannot accept announcements for events outside our primary listening area.
3.  We prefer to receive announcements in writing. They may be mailed or dropped off to us at 1000 N. Main Avenue, Suite 5, Tillamook, Oregon 97141, or they may be sent to our fax at 503-842-5640. You may also e-mail your announcements to .
4. Due to the volume of items received, we generally run announcements one week prior to an event. If there's an advance sign-up deadline involved, the item would run for the week prior to that deadline. We will consider special circumstances if an item needs longer-term airing.
5. Please make sure your announcement includes all relevant information--dates, times, location, sponsoring organization, contact person with a phone number for more information, and enough detail to inform the public about the event.
6. We prefer announcements about 15 to 30 seconds in length. We reserve the right to edit all announcements for length and broadcast style.
7. Announcements are not read on a set schedule, but as the opportunity for the announcer permits, so we can’t guarantee a set time or total number of times an announcement will air. If you would like to assure your ad runs a specific number of times, please contact our sales department. We offer a matching number of free announcements when paid spots are purchased.

If you have any questions, please contact Shaena Peterson, Station Manager, weekday mornings at 503- 842-3888.
