 Hey hey everybody!

Thanks so much for everyone who has donated to the membership drive to date and in fact to everyone who listens to this station! Your support means everything!

As I mentioned last week, an amazing used vinyl/CD and book shop, Pandemonium, in the heart of the Junction (2921 Dundas West here in Toronto) has donated two $25 gift certificates as draw prizes. If you have already donated on behalf of this show, you are in the running already! But there is still time to join the race! Just go to www.ciut.fm, click on Donate and indicate that you listen to Ruby Slippers and VIOLA! (oops, er, voila)  The winners will be notified in June and arrangements for the prizes to be sent to you made.

AND  there is a straight up give away this week from the good folks at www.ceolkids.com. Wanna hear a concert you will never forget at the Axis Club (formerly the Mod Club on College Street) next Friday (June 2)? Just check out the playlist on the CeolKids site, pick the song you are most excited about and tell me about it at carolbonciut@ciut.fm.  I will notify the winner by Wednesday May 30! (you name will be on the guest list at the door) 

Good luck to one and all.
