WMSE is nothing short of a local treasure. It’s an area institution, it’s one of a kind, it’s an invaluable champion of local music that should be supported and preserved at all costs. How can you support WMSE, you ask? Well, you can donate to the station. You can buy WMSE apparel. You can attend Rockabilly Chili (and the station’s numerous other annual events). And, of course, you can also volunteer with the station. That’s a great start!
If you’re seeking yet another way to benefit “The Mighty 91,” we highly suggest checking out the wide range of items the station currently has up for auction. Yes, WMSE’s “Spring Cleaning Auction” features more than 120 lots that, well, pretty run the gamut of music, film, and other random goodies. Some standout items include:
• Office chair
• Super Nintendo with controllers and six games

That’s just some of the treasures that await! The auction is set to end around 10:20 a.m. on Wednesday, March 13.

Support WMSE, get some weird and potentially useful stuff, and place those bids now!
