Live @ Five--Shinedown

Every Friday I have the opportunity to be a part of Alice's biggest summer event series, Live at Five at the Tavern downtown. Live at Five brings two of Alice's biggest personalities, Slacker and Steve, out into the community to entertain and give out prizes. The event is also a concert series--this week having Shinedown perform. 

Live at Five was my first experience working an all day event from set up until tear down. Set up mainly involved putting up posters and banners of every kind and setting up tables for the contest entries and prize stations. We also worked with sponsors to make sure their tables and banners were set up properly. 

Our events do not only serve the purpose of promoting our station and radio personalities, but also to make sure our sponsors are well represented and promoted. My job during the event was to work with T-Mobile. I was assigned the job of using a T-Mobile camera phone to take photos of the event-goers for the Alice 105.9 Facebook page. 

I'm incredibly excited to continue being a part of Live at Five for the rest of the summer. Just the first night alone helped me learn so much about working radio events and what it takes to make one run successfully.
