Premiums for pledging to WNHU and the Black Diamond Show

Premium List updated for March 5 show!

Please call 1-203-479-8807 and and support WNHU during our shows on Feb. 27 and March 5.

Thanks for your support of WNHU and its mission to serve both the University of New Haven and the larger community: southern Connecticut via 88.7 FM and the entire world via www.wnhu.net! Pledges of any amount ($5 to $5,000 [I can dream, can't I?]) are welcome. In addition to the regular incentives for donors to WNHU, we have some special premiums for Black Diamond Show listeners who call in and pledge $25 $50 or more.

After the 2/27 show, we still have both pairs of Doyle Lawson tix ($50 donation) and most of the CDs ($25 donation--reduced!) available.

Tix for Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver, Hamden, April 27

After we prepared the Feb. 27 show, Chris Wuerth from Guitar Town contacted us and donated two (2) pair of tickets to the Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver concert at the Unitarian Society Hall in Hamden, CT, on Friday, April 27. For a donation of $50 to WNHU, you can get a pair of tickets to this fabulous show.

Doyle and his band are winners of 14 IBMA awards including vocal group of the year seven times. They also have four Grammy nominations, 37 SPBGMA awards, and five Dove gospel awards. You can order tix from Guitar Town now. OR you can save $10 and get a pair of tix by donating $50 to WNHU! This is a steal of a deal!

Contacting WNHU

Try one of the following methods of contacting us.

  1. Call 1-203-479-8807. We are scheduled to have three people splitting the phone duties between Noon and 2pm on March 5.
  2. If no one answers at 1-203-479-8807, or if you call after the show is over, be patient. Let the phone ring up to 15 times. Voice mail will prompt you for your information (Name, address, show supporting, amount). If you get the machine prompt instead of one of the three people on phone duty and want a premium, email me.
  3. Mail WNHU a check and write "Black Diamond Show" on the memo line. The address is WNHU, University of New Haven, 300 Boston Post Road, West Haven, CT 06516. If you email me that you have donated at least $25, you can choose one of the CDs from the premium list. ($50 for Doyle Lawson tickets.)
  4. Email me the pledge you'd like to make and I'll forward the information to WNHU. If you're pledging $25 or $50 or more, choose a premium from the premium list.

Remember, all premiums are first come first served.
