Orlando In Spaaaaaaace!

• There has been an increased bustle of activity in the hallways of Beasley Rhythmic WLLD (WiLD 94.1)/Tampa, as PD/Morning Freak Show ringmaster Orlando Davis finishes weeks of semi-strenuous training in preparation for his 6th Annual Toy Drive Tower event to benefit The Children’s Home Network. Tomorrow at 5pm, O will ascend the magical “Toy Drive Tower,” a 30-foot high platform constructed “at a local MetroPCS location.” He will remain aloft through Saturday, December 16 at 5pm.

Over the course of his eight-day adventure, Orlando will encourage listeners to stop by and donate unwrapped toys, bicycles, toys, gift cards and monetary donations to benefit The non-profit Children’s Home Network, which serves as a sanctuary for abused, neglected or abandoned children in the community. And to keep O from getting too lonely, his Freak Show crew will join him up in the tower and broadcast live every morning next week.

“Toy drive moments are the best,” said Orlando, who hopes to break last year’s donation record, which included more than 700 bicycles, two full POD containers of toys and over $12,000 in cash! “We love how we get to witness our listeners focusing on others, and it starts again tomorrow,” he said. “This year’s event will go three days longer with the goal of collecting even more donations for The Children’s Home Network. It’s what our company’s ‘Beasley Best Community Caring’ effort is all about!”
