Springer Mountain Farms Chicken – Jingle Contest

Springer Mountain Farms ChickenSpringer Mountain Farms is no stranger to bluegrass music. The company sponsors the Bluegrass Nights at the Ryman concert series. The company is located in the Blueridge Mountains of NorthEast Georgia.

Searching for a new jingle for the business, the company decided to partner with WSM to allow creative types to submit their creations for consideration. Here’s the deal.

You write, and perform, a jingle for Springer Mountain Farms Chicken and submit either an audio or video recording, by mail or electronically. Submissions are handled by WSMonline.com. Judges will choose 5 of the submitted jingles for the contest. These five will be posted on the WSM website and the public will vote on their favorite.

The submission deadline is June 13, 2008. The top five will then be posted for voting and the grand prize winner will announced on June 23, 2008.

The grand prize winner will receive the following.

  • $1,000 Cash Prize
  • A Year’s Supply of Chicken from Springer Mountain Farms
  • A Season Pass to this year’s Bluegrass Nights at the Ryman (presented by Springer Mountain Farms)
  • A Recording Session at 650 AM WSM’s studio

In addition to the prizes listed above, the winning jingle will, of course, be used in advertising on 650 AM WSM as the official jingle for Springer Mountain Farms Chicken.
