I had a surreal weekend, I got to represent the La Crosse
Radio Group at the Wisconsin Broadcasters Association Awards in Madison. We as a group were up for 4 four awards and
won two first places and two second places, not too bad considering we were up
against the rest of the state’s medium markets.
While standing in the reception area, it hit me that a lot of the voices
that we hear from around the state on the radio are standing in this room and lots of the tv
personalities from around the state are here as well. There was an open bar for about 45 minutes
then off to dinner, and the food was good. I
had no idea what to expect at the awards, they started promptly at 6 and there
was basically a breakdown of music, talk and tv. When your category is up you sit at the edge
of your seat, they announce the first place winner then your heart beats your
hands shake and you go up and collect the award, it was surreal to be awarded
the best in the state for your profession.
Back to the meal they served a steak, salmon, a salad and a cheese cake
for desert. Oh yea and asparagus I love
asparagus, I wonder if Lynyrd Skynyrd did too?
