Now that we've come up for air after our 36hr broadcast extravaganza that is the St. Jude Country Cares Radiothon, we wanted to say, thank you, to everyone who participated. If space allowed we would mention each and every one of you by name.

This year's St. Jude Country Cares Radiothon was a huge success. $102,141 was raised for the kids at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, all because of you folks who answered our call to pick up the telephone and become 'Partner's in Hope' by pledging $20 a month.

We, of course, could not have done it without all of our sponsors (Yellowstone Country  Motors, Summit Dental, First Interstate Bank), volunteers, and partners who manned phoned lines, brought us food to sustain our energy, and helped promote our event by letting us borrow their marquee sings for a couple of days.

Also, special thanks to those of you who took it upon yourself by raising money on your own (thank you, Kyle Olsen at Chief Joseph Middle School & Brian, Dave, and all the head shavers at the Filling Station).

Stephanie Quayle, thank you for flying out from Nashville to play our Radiothon Kickoff Party for FREE!

Talking with St. Jude after the event, you should know that they are blown away, and so appreciate of the effort that the XL Nation gives every year to the St. Jude radiothon.

Way to go, XL Nation! We really can't thank you enough!
