Subject: Info for you on Radio Programs about Fisher House airing this weekend

Friends of Fisher House,

FYI -    The three-hour program,   “Our Greatest National Treasure,” about Fisher House is being offered for broadcast to news/talk radio stations this Memorial Day weekend, as well as "The Gift" a version playing on country music stations.   Over 200 radio stations (including numerous Iheartradio.com and CBS.Com stations)  across the country will be broadcasting the programs sometime over the the next three days.   Don't be surprised if people in your local area mention to you that they heard something on the radio about Fisher House this weekend.

I don't have a list of all the stations that are playing them, but chances are your local talk radio or country station has probably will air the show.

If you would like to preview the talkradio version,  you can download the audio files.    Here are the instructions:
  • visit:   radio.fisherhouse.org
  • enter user name: station
  • enter password: station   
Feel free to let your board members and supporters know.

We also plan to post the audio of both shows on our website after the weekend for those who missed it.


Prayers this Memorial Day Weekend for all of you who do so much, and for all our brothers and sisters in uniform who paid the ultimate price for our freedom.
