Special Announcement 3/29/2020: COVID 19 Operational Plan


All,

The past few weeks, and for unknown how many weeks to come, have brought a lot of stress and uncertainty to the nation and the world. This epidemic, regardless of whether you consider it to be serious or media-hype (I am stuck somewhere in between), has made everyone re-think a lot of things and alter our lives in ways we thought unimaginable.

Despite so much talent and dedication from all of our Staff, these times have forced us to make some necessary temporary adjustments to the way we operate. This coming week we are rolling out a temporary live-show lineup which maintains live shows during our typically peak listening hours. We have several DJs who have demonstrated remote capability and the schedule flexibility to make this work. Our normal studio operations have been suspended so that our DJs can work in a safe environment. This reflects a hard decision to act responsibly to limit everyone’s exposure and to yet maintain a personable presence with our audience.

During this situation, we will only be able to take song requests via our Mobile Apps, Song Request form on our website or through e-mail to requests@wixy1260online.com



We WILL get through this, and I encourage everyone to stay positive and hopeful for a swift recovery to everyone effected. Please continue to be vigilant in your daily lives and hygiene practices, and most importantly, BE SAFE!

MUCH WIXY LOVE!

TJ
