Minithon
Tuesday, April 3, morning
Minithons set aside three times throughout the year to reconnect listeners with their Children's Miracle Network hospital. Stations set a modest, attainable goal, ask listeners for help in reaching that goal, and then wrap up the effort. The result is increased revenue and exposure. Radio stations will have the opportunity to participate in and observe a Minithon at Celebration 2007. Through this unprecedented Celebration experience, both hospitals and radio stations will learn the key elements of a successful Minithon, and will return home with the necessary tools to implement this mutually rewarding new initiative.
