WSLM & COLTS FAN FEST EVENT

WSLM Radio based in Salem is proud to announce it is the new Kentuckiana Home of the Indianapolis Colts. According to WSLM station owner Becky White, WSLM will be broadcasting LIVE during the Indianapolis Colts Fan Fest at Waterfront Park in Louisville Thursday, June 27 from 5-7 p.m.

The event will feature Colts players, cheerleaders and a FREE community concert by former Colts punter and his band, The Hunter Smith Band.

“We’re super excited about adding the Indianapolis Colts to our sports lineup on WSLM,” said White. “Not only will you be able to listen to local high school football this fall on WSLM 97.9 FM and AM 1220, but you’ll find IU and Purdue Football and now the Colts. We’ve got the sport covered from local all the way to the pros!”

WSLM 97.9 FM will be the only FM Colts affiliate in the Louisville area.

“Come on down and visit with me and the Colts,” said White. “We’ll have Colts schedules and posters to give away, plus you can register to win a pair of tickets to a Colts game.”

Colts Fan Fest Activities at this free event include:

  • Player and Cheerleader Autographs
  • Meet the WSLM Weather Bird
  • Register to win Colts and IU Football tickets
  • Interactive Inflatables
  • Play 60 Zone

The Colts will make three Fan Fest stops this summer in Crawfordsville, Louisville, and Fort Wayne

Risk It: Indiana Accepting Pitch Ideas!

The Southeast Indiana Small Business Development Center (ISBDC) is excited to announce our 2nd Annual Risk-It Competition. Risk-It is a contest sponsored by the Southeast ISBDC to encourage and award innovative ideas in the small business sector.  Entrepreneurs with exceptional ideas for a new business, invention, or process can submit their ideas to www.Riskitindiana.com. Contestants will present their ideas to guests and a panel of judges, with winning ideas selected for a 1st and 2nd place prize package detailed on the website and the audience choice winner receiving a cash prize.

Risk-It will take place on August 28th at the Venture Out Business Center in historic Madison, Indiana. Six to Eight finalists will be selected from entries received prior to July 15, 2013.  Finalists will be chosen by members of the Southeast ISBDC but all entries will be eligible for no-cost counseling from our knowledgeable staff.

Each of the finalists will have five minutes to present their pitch to the audience and judges.

The winners will be announced that night and honored at the LEADS Indiana Awards Luncheon in Jeffersonville, IN on November 13, 2013.
