Now that the Hawk's Ocean of Love Billboard Radiothon is over, I want to say how thankful I am that, with your generous help, we were able to raise money to ease the suffering of Ocean County families who so desperately need our help.
And I want to again share some words about this wonderful organization (and its amazing founder, Linda Gillick) that so deserves all the support you showed it.
October 19, 2012 Yesterday, we made a considerable amount of progress towards our goal of $105,700...but not before being faced with probably the most tribulating experience we've had to date at Billboard Week.
Andy's a mensch. He's living on a billboard for a week, of course, to raise money for Ocean of Love. He does it every year, and really, truly cares about the children with cancer and their families that are helped out by this wonderful charity.
So, Andy, here's to you. ;-)
October 18, 2012 An emotional day here at the Billboard Radiothon and a dream fulfilled for Ocean of Love's Paige.

October 16, 2012 There may have been a little rain today, but the only downpour was donations on this great first day at Billboard Radiothon 2012!
October 15, 2012 What started on Monday, October 15 at 5 p.m. and will end Friday, October 19 at 7 p.m., Andy Chase is living on a billboard above the Target parking lot on Hooper Avenue in Toms River to raise money for Ocean of Love, a local organization dedicated to supporting families in the fight against pediatric cancer.
Charity is a wonderful thing. Giving back to those in need is something we all should strive for in our daily lives. Spending time on and off the air at the 105.7 The Hawk Billboard radiothon has given Just a Bit Outside a chance for a second consecutive year to help raise money for families in Ocean County that have been afflicted with cancer. Sometimes charity is dressing up like Kermit the Frog. Sometimes it's wearing a ladies dress. Unfortunately for our ego's, Thursday night is the latter.
Just a Bit Outside prides itself on many things. Great radio. Good looks. Knowledge about everything from sports, to life skills, to holding court with the ladies. Somewhere on that list includes consistency. Every week includes a Top 5 Tuesday topic. Of course, this week revolved around ways to make money for Ocean of Love and help reach our station goal of $105,700 by Friday afternoon. Without further ado, the Top 5 things I will do for big money donations:
