KBXE Publicity Committee Meeting in Bemidji

We have just over a year before the March 2012 deadline to get 90.5 KBXE on the air, can you feel the excitement?

Please join our Publicity Committee meeting and share your ideas for good ways to spread the news about KBXE. If you have the time/interest in helping staff a table at a local event, or just a suggestion of an event we should represent at - the more people we have, the better we can do.

We'll be meeting at the MN Energy Resources building in Bemidji at 301 2nd St NW (use the 2nd St entrance) from 5:30-7p.

You can RSVP on Facebook, or just show up.

We'll be working on final specifics for events in March and April, including the Master Gardeners Spring Wakeup conference in Bagley, SisterSong in Bemidji, a Phenology Walk in the Bemidji area and the Ojibwe art exhibit Art From Within.

Plus, we've got some guerrilla theater to orchestrate and it has to be even cooler than last years Paul Bunyan Flash mob. Got some ideas of how we can do that?

I hope to see you there!

Rock on,
Doug

KBXE Spread the Love 2011 [The Video]

The official highlight video from Spread the Love, including performances by Katie Corning and The Limns!!!

There was a great turn out for Spread the Love at the Blue Ox in Bemidji on Feb., 5th, 2011. The food was great, the music rocked, the trivia was quizzical and the people were generous.

At Spread the Love, we raised $19,240.86 towards building KBXE. A huge thanks to everyone who came out to help spread the love!

Let's Get Together and Feel All Right

Our second annual Spread the Love party and fundraiser is coming up on Sat., Feb 5th at the Blue Ox Bar and Grill in downtown Bemidji starting at 6pm. Come on out for fun and games, live music and find out how you can help spread the love for KBXE!

We'll have love themed Green Cheese Trivia and prizes with Brandon Chase and Julie Crabb. Big thanks to the Bar Bell Bee Ranch, KD Floral and Gardens and Chocolates Plus for providing the prizes. Plus, we'll have a couple copies of The Sexy Book of Sexy Sex to give away - how's that for love themed prizes? ;)

And we are really excited to have The Limns joining us that night for some excellent live music. Out of Minneapolis, the Limns are a high energy reggae-rock band with more than enough love to go around.

There will also be a taco bar and veggie alternatives. We'll start with trivia after food, then The Limns will rock out, then another round of trivia before The Limns rock out the rest of the night.

Join us on Sat., Feb 5th to Spread the Love for KBXE. You can RSVP here on Facebook.

Meetings, Parties and Construction... OH MY!

Happy New Year!!!! Nothing against 2010, but it's nice to finally be in 2011, right? We have barely over a year to build KBXE, LET'S DO IT!!!

This Thursday, Jan. 6th, the KBXE Publicity Committee is meeting at the future KBXE Studios, 3rd and America in downtown Bemidji, at 5:30pm. All are welcome! Bring friends, neighbors, strangers, whoever! We'll be working on Spread the Love II, planned for Saturday, Feb 5th. RSVP on Facebook.

Some homework to bring to the meeting: 5 love-themed trivia questions (not raunchy!) for the bar-edition of Green Cheese Trivia with Brandon Chase. If you can't make the meeting, feel free to message them to me (mac@kaxe.org).

And keep in mind that we have a "Call for Help" out there for remodeling the KBXE studios - It's a modern day barn-raising; where a community comes together and builds something great. Read more here.

Thanks for all you do, let me know if you have any questions and see you soon!

Rock on,
Doug
