Big White Ski Resort

And so we'll have volleyball on AM 1420.

Uh, also wanna let you guys know, you might have heard Kanoa and Billy talking about it in their promo for today, but this morning at 7:35 AM, we, or they I should say, will give, uh, the name of the grand prize drawing winner for the big white ski resort giveaway.

We've heard and have had people qualify over the last couple of weeks, uh, with Kanoa and Billy, Josh and Chris, and today is the day where one name will be drawn out of that big, big hat, and if the name that is drawn somehow comes out as Chris Shimabukuro, then I think it's fixed.

Other than that, it's totally legit.

[upbeat music] Back we are, 16 minutes before the top of the hour.

Kanoa Leahey and Billy Ho will be in the studio.

And a reminder, at seven thirty-five this morning, it will be the time for the big giveaway, the announcement for the Big White Ski Resort Giveaway.

Seven thirty-five they will draw the winning name and hopefully, uh...

Chris Hart, Josh Pacheco.

We've got our big white ski resort qualifier, which is coming up in moments here.

Fire is a natural occurrence.

We've got an excellent science-based system called the Biogeoclimatic Classification System.

So a coastal forest is different than the forest around, immediately around Kelowna.

The l- And then the big white forest, high elevation forest trees are different than the ones in Kelowna.

So those spruce balsam trees have thin bark, lateral roots, so if you open them up, they can blow down in the wind, and they also d- are not good at surviving a fire 'cause they have thin bark.
