Stop by the Talk Radio 570 KVI booth to enter-to-win a pair of tickets to Sister Act at KeyBank Broadway at the Paramount and dinner at Hop Jack's.

Sister Act is Broadway's feel-amazing musical comedy smash! Sister Act tells the story of Deloris Van Cartier, a wannabe diva whose life takes a surprising turn when she witnesses a crime and the cops hide her in the last place anyone would think to look - a convent! Under the suspicious watch of Mother Superior, Deloris helps her fellow sisters find their voices as she unexpectedly rediscovers her own. A sparkling tribute to the universal power of friendship, Sister Act is reason to rejoice!

Talk Radio 570 KVI's John Carlson has climbed the highest peaks in the Cascade range, including Mount Hood, Mount Adams, and Mount Rainier. Soon he will be climbing Mt. Olympus.  It’s more than a challenge.  It’s for a cause, Climb to Fight Breast Cancer.  August 10^th through 14^th, John will be hiking for the 9^th consecutive year to support the thousands of women who were diagnosed with breast cancer last year.
 
The Climb to Fight Breast Cancer began in 1997.  Over these years, climbers have experienced the thrill of standing above the clouds while making a huge impact with raising over $6.6 million to fund critical research at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center.  Please support the Climb by donating here to help John reach his goal of $20,000.  You can even inquire about climbing a mountain yourself, anyone can climb a mountain with Fred Hutch.  Every donation helps.  And it's tax deductible.
