Winners will be drawn at random on 11/22/21 to receive a pair of tickets to see Gladys Knight at Merrill Auditorium on March 11th . Total prize value is $154. Winners will be contacted via email.

Upon signing release forms at the the Pure Oldies Studio (or by e-mail), 420 Western Avenue in South Portland, Maine, during normal business hours (Monday through Friday, 8am to 5pm), the winners will receive their prize.

Due to the nature of our programs that are heard on-line over the internet, contests may not be heard at all on Pure Oldies 105.5 . Contests heard on the radio station’s internet audio stream may be slightly delayed from the time the contests are heard on the broadcast station, and will be running behind the broadcast signal. Thus, all contests heard on the internet are delayed. This delay can last for as much as 30 seconds or more. This means that when Pure Oldies 105.5  contests are played that require a specific caller to telephone the radio station (such as “Caller number 9 when you hear the sound effect”), listeners to the on-line audio stream may be at a disadvantage in participating over those listeners who hear the contests on-air.

All Pure Oldies 105.5 contests are open to all eligible Maine residents who live or work within 75 miles of our transmitter 18 or older and have not won anything on 107.1 The Bay  in the past 30 days or any prize valued at $600 or more in the past 6 months. Only one winner per household is permitted within 30 days after a household has a winner. Any prize awarded to an ineligible listener will be deemed null and void, and an alternate eligible winner may be named.

Employees of Pure Oldies 105.5 , Portland Radio Group and its ultimate parent company, Saga Communications, Inc., their advertising agencies, affiliates, contest sponsors, employees and immediate families of each, and employees of all media of mass communication within a one hundred mile radius of the Pure Oldies 105.5  main studio are not eligible to win any contest. Immediate family includes the spouse, great-grandparents, grandparents, parents, brothers, sisters, children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren of the employee and his/her spouse. This also includes individuals for whom the employee is current legal guardian.

No purchase necessary. Pure Oldies 105.5 ’s sole responsibility will be to award the prize. Pure Oldies 105.5  will have no further responsibility in connection with the prize if the prize winner, for any reason, cannot or decides not to use any of the prizes. Winners will be responsible for all federal and state taxes, and any fees and incidentals. Prizes are not transferrable or redeemable for cash.

Full contest rules available at Pure Oldies 105.5  studios located at 420 Western Avenue between the hours of 9am and 5pm; or by logging onto PUROLDIES1055.com.
