Hello, Charlie O’Brien back here again with my friend, Jo-Jo Shutty MacGregor —
With a reminder the CKLW ‘Meet and Greet’ Charity event is happening next Saturday, July 13! We pride in noting this will be our 6th. event to benefit the Ronald McDonald’s Charities of Detroit.
The event will take place at the VFW Bruce Post 1146 lodge and property at 28404 Jefferson Avenue in St. Clair Shores, MI., from 5 pm until 11 pm. And it’s a free event. Tell your friends. Bring your family. Come one come all!
Attending will be some of the great CKLW names. You will hear great ‘CK hits played throughout the evening, dancing, reminiscing, and 50/50 raffles drawn. Have any CKLW memorabilia? Bring them along. We’ll sign them as well.
So mark it down on your calendar — Saturday, July 13 — from 5 p.m. – 11:00 pm. For more information visit big8radio.com or our CKLW Facebook page or you may call PAT at 586-354-1117
