Newsletter 12/29/2023: Dead Christmas Trees

Image
Hello WIXY Fans, We hope your holiday season has gone well and you are all ready to ring in the new year.  Here at the Larry Morrow Studios (recently dedicated to the legend himself) we've seen another year fly by.  We're happy to report 2023 was a great year again for the station as our listenership continues its steady upward climb and our fans continue to increase in number.  Sadly, the pretty decorations that come with the holidays are beginning to come down and it won't be long before you see a bunch of dead Christmas trees on the curb.  Our own Santa (The Old TyeDye Guy) has taken the sleigh south to Florida until early Spring, and he took his studio decorations with him :-( we miss him already.  Not to fear though, Victor Tango will keep his seat warm (and our Thursday 10-2 slot going) until he gets back. Remember to follow us on Facebook , or right on our website at wixy1260online.com - your one-stop shop for all things WIXY.  While we've been ...
