The Fall Pledge Drive Swag Is Here!
KMSU Has Loads of Great thank You Gifts When You Pledge During the Fall Drive
The Fall Pledge Drive Starts on Wednesday, October 19th
See All the Available Swag Online and Pledge Today
Gang, the Fall Pledge Drive starts this Wednesday. This is one of two times during the year where we come to you and ask for your generous support to help keep KMSU on the air. We're hoping you'll take some time and make a donation to help us hit our $35,000 goal for the drive. $35,000 is nothing to sneeze at, but we're true believers in the station and its place in the community. Over the past year, your support has allowed us to continue growing KMSU. We're currently developing our own app so you can take KMSU with you wherever you go, as well as building the library for a channel dedicated to Minnesota's rich musical culture. Red tape aside, we hope to have both of these things in place by the end of the year, and we couldn't do any of it without you.
Please take a moment and consider the place KMSU holds in your life. If you listen to the station regularly, if you've found shows that you know and love, then you're probably a true believer, and you realize that what KMSU offers to you and the community can't be found anywhere else. This kind of programming can only continue with the generous support of our listeners, and we hope you'll give us a call or pledge online to help us out. Any amount makes a huge difference, but we have some great swag available at different pledge levels to hopefully nudge you towards making a contribution. And now...
The Swag
Classic KMSU Mug - $30
The gold KMSU mug is the gold standard of drinking liquid delivery systems. It looks sharp, plus it's the perfect size for holding enough of whatever you're pouring down your throat. Every home needs one. In fact, every home needs a set! Yours for a $30 pledge.
Mancamp Morning Fix Mug Bundle - $50
Not every morning is greeted with sunshine & songbirds. Every once in a while we're all slapped across the face with a new day and a cranky disposition, and the only cure is a good cup of coffee. KMSU has you covered! Pledge for the Mancamp Morning Fix, and you'll get the classic KMSU mug and two 2 oz packets of coffee to jump-start your brain and send you whirling off into a successful day that's sound-tracked by 89.7 the Maverick. How can it get any better? Check this out. The coffee is freshly-ground by Beans Coffee Company, a small-batch roaster located in Mankato. Each packet will make a full carafe of coffee. Their coffee is 100-percent organic and Fair Trade Certified. Good morning!
500 Piece Polka 'Til You Puke Jigsaw Puzzle - $50
Illustrator Kat Baumann has done it again! She's created a 500 piece jigsaw puzzle depicting KMSU staff celebrating a particularly raucous Polka 'Til You Puke! This puppy is fun, challenging, and a great way to pass the time during one of those soul crushing snow days that await us! Get 'em while they last!
KMSU Knit Cap - $30
What all the cool kids are wearing to keep their heads warm and their looks cool. It's a warm purple stocking cap with the KMSU logo emblazoned across the front! Folks will truly believe that you're a fan of great radio and of keeping warm!
The KMSU Radio Hero Rubgy Scarf - $30
It's fancy! It's warm! It clearly identifies you as a person with excellent taste in radio! The brand new KMSU Radio Hero ruby scarf has the KMSU Radio Hero design on one end, and the KMSU logo on the other end. Display whichever end suits your mood when you're bundling up for the day. It's the "business in the front, party in the back" equivalent of winter wear, and it can be yours for a $30 pledge during our Fall pledge drive!
The Bundle Up Bundle - $50
Are you saying to yourself "Hey, self, I know you love KMSU so much and you love swag, but you're also a thrifty person. How do we resolve this situation?"

Keepin' It Local "That's Right Buddy" Volume 4
A compilation of local, original music from the Mankato area. Hand selected and carefully arranged by Ben and Chris from "Keepin' It Local", this disc is jam packed with some of their favorite recent local releases.

KMSU Day Sponsorship - $200
You can sponsor an entire day of radio on KMSU with this premium.

Day Sponsors will also get the classic KMSU mug so they can enjoy tasty beverages as they listen to KMSU.
Your Own Personal Soundclash - $500
For a $500 pledge you can have KMSU hosts DJ your own personal three hour Soundclash! Need a soundtrack for your party? Like to garden while loud music plays?

There is only one Soundclash available, so don’t wait to pledge!
- Absolutely no weddings!
- The DJs pick the music!
- No, you cannot look at their records!
The DJs Soundclashing your event are subject to availability. They all will bring the heat.
There's the swag! Drop us a line with questions, but most of all drop us a line with your support! Remember, the 2022 Fall Pledge Drive this Wednesday at six a.m.! Give early and give often!
