- How to Enter.
On-Air: Listen to the Station weekdays between approximately 7:00am to 8:00am, 11:00am to 12:00pm, and 4:00pm to 5:00pm PT during the On-air Entry Period. When the Station plays the “cue-to-call” sounder, listeners must call the Station at (209) 766-5103. Caller thirteen (13) to the Station, as determined by the Station in its sole discretion, will qualify to be a finalist at the Finale Event (as described below) (each a “Finalist ”) where they will be eligible to win the Grand Prize (described below), subject to verification of eligibility and compliance with the terms of these rules. Time Delay Between Over-the-Air Analog Signal and Internet Broadcast: Due to the time delay that exists between the Station’s analog over-the-air signal and the Station’s online webcast, listeners who listen to the Station online may hear the cue to call later than listeners listening to the Station’s analog over-the-air signal. As a result, the odds of an online listener entering this Contest on-air may be diminished.

On or about August 9, 2025 at approximately 12:00pm PT, Station will conduct the “Rubber Ducky Splash-Off” at University Plaza Waterfront Hotel at 110 West Fremont Street, Stockton, CA (“Finale Event”). Finalists will be required to check-in and register with Station for the Finale Event between 10:30am and 11:50am PT with valid identification and proof of home ownership (e.g. A deed with their name on it or a mortgage statement with their name on it).

All Finalists whose ducky lands inside the pool will move on to the next round. Finalists who remain eligible will repeat this activity from successively further distances until one (1) Finalist remains. Should more than one (1) Finalist remain after the furthest distance is reached, the remaining Finalists will repeat tossing their rubber duckies from the furthest distance reached until only one (1) Finalist remains. The lone remaining Finalist will win the Grand Prize. All Finalists must be present for the entire duration of the Finale Event to be eligible to win. Each Finalist’s rubber duckie may NOT be altered in any way after they receive their duck. Any Finalist that alters their duck will be disqualified. The winning entrant may be awarded the prize (subject to verification of eligibility and compliance with the terms of these rules). Station’s decisions as to the administration and operation of the Contest and the selection of the potential winner are final and binding in all matters related to the Contest. Failure to claim the Grand Prize within the time frame provided below will result in disqualification and forfeiture of the Grand Prize.
Proxy Needed Due to Physical Disability or Sickness. Should a Finalist be physically unable to participate in the Finale Event due to illness related to COVID-19 or physical disability, as verified by a doctor’s note, then the Finalist should no later than 10:00am PT on August 8, 2025: (a) provide a doctor’s note to the Station, and (b) alert the Station as to the full legal name of the person who will be the Finalist’s proxy. After the one (1) and only one (1) proxy’s name is given, no other substitutions will be allowed for any reason. The Finalist’s proxy must meet the qualifications above by presenting a current, valid government issued photo ID and copy of the original Finalist’s deed or mortgage statement and check-in with the Station timely. Should a Finalist requesting a proxy not receive a confirmation from the Station that Station has received all information needed for Finalist to designate a proxy, then it will be deemed not received for purposes of proxy substitution. Alerting the Station as to the need for a proxy substitution due to physical disability and/or illness is the sole and exclusive responsibility of the Finalist.
- Verification of Potential Winner. POTENTIAL CONTEST WINNER IS SUBJECT TO VERIFICATION BY STATION WHOSE DECISIONS ARE FINAL AND BINDING IN ALL MATTERS RELATED TO THE CONTEST. The potential winner must continue to comply with all terms and conditions of these Official Rules, and winning is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements. The potential winner will be notified by email and/or telephone call after the date of random drawing and/or winner determination. The potential winner will be required to sign and return to Station, within three (3) days of the date notice is sent, an affidavit of eligibility and a liability/publicity release (except where prohibited) in order to claim his/her prize, if applicable. A winner who returns the affidavit of eligibility and liability/publicity release will be deemed to have accepted the Contest Prize and thereafter will not be permitted to rescind their acceptance of the prize and/or return the prize. If a potential winner cannot be contacted, fails to sign and return the affidavit of eligibility and/or the liability/publicity release within the required time period (if applicable), or if the prize or prize notification is returned as undeliverable, potential winner forfeits prize. In the event that the potential winner of a prize is disqualified or determined ineligible for any reason, Station may award the applicable prize to the second place finisher in the Finale Event. If the second place finisher is disqualified or determined to be ineligible, Station may award the prize to an alternate winner by random drawing from among all remaining eligible Finalists.
- Prize. One (1) Grand Prize will be awarded in this Contest. The Grand Prize is a custom designed in-ground swimming pool, including filtering and drainage system, with concrete decking, as permitted by yard dimensions, with at least seven (7) linear feet of access provided by Trademark Pool and Spa Inc. (5492 Pirrone Road, Ste A, Salida, CA 95358) (“Grand Prize Provider”). ARV up to One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000). Winner is responsible for all taxes associated with prize receipt and/or use.

The Grand Prize will not exceed 85 perimeter feet and 400 square feet. The winner’s name must be on the deed of the property where the Grand Prize will be installed. Grand Prize Provider will inspect the property to determine eligibility to receive the Grand Prize. The decision of Grand Prize Provider on the fitness of the winner’s property for the Grand Prize will be in Grand Prize Provider’s sole discretion. If a pool already exists on winner’s property, Grand Prize Provider may be able to refurbish or make improvements to existing pool not to exceed the Grand Prize ARV. Winner is responsible for all permit fees and the costs required by the locality in which the pool is constructed and for such costs outside of normal excavation proceedings. Winner agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions contained in Grand Prize Provider’s contract and the ancillary disclaimers and agreements, which are available for inspection at Grand Prize Provider’s location prior to the Finale Event. Grand Prize Provider is not responsible for any costs associated with mitigating any easement, encroachments, or fees in obtaining any variances or the release of any restrictions that may be required by the locality in constructing the pool, nor for any increase in the winner’s real property taxes and water rates associated with the pool’s construction. Construction must begin on or before March 31, 2026 or Grand Prize will be forfeited unless the delay is the result of scheduling by Grand Prize Provider.
There is no substitution, transfer, or cash equivalent for prizes, except that the Station may, at its sole discretion and to the extent permitted by law, substitute prizes of comparable value or cash. The prizes are expressly limited to the item(s) listed above and do not include taxes, gratuities or any other expenses.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATIONS OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and enforceability of these Official Rules, or the rights and obligations of entrant and Station in connection with the Contest, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the state in which the Station is located, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules (whether of the state in which the Station is located or any other jurisdiction), which would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the state in which the Station is located.
