🚨 24-HOUR DJ LOCKDOWN MARATHON ðŸš¨

Thursday MAY 21 through Friday May 22, 2026

Mission Accomplished

​

The 2026 Live DJ Marathon from The Thin Line Rock Station was an incredible 24-hour celebration of music, community, and support for first responders. Four DJs from across our station came together for a full day of live broadcasting, special guest appearances, listener interaction, and fundraising efforts that exceeded expectations. Not only did we crush our original fundraising goal, we surpassed it by thousands of dollars

​

One of the highlights of the event was our partnership with First H.E.L.P., an organization dedicated to supporting first responders. Through the generosity of our listeners, supporters, and sponsors, funds were raised to help further their important mission.

​

​​The event attracted some of the largest audience numbers in The Thin Line Rock Station's history. Listeners from across the United States and beyond tuned in throughout the marathon, creating unprecedented engagement on our streams, social media platforms, and website. The excitement surrounding the event even earned coverage from ABC News, helping shine a spotlight on our station, our sponsors, and the first responder community we proudly serve.

​

Our sponsors played a major role in the marathon's success. Throughout the broadcast, sponsors received on-air recognition and were invited to call into the live show to promote their businesses directly to our audience. These live sponsor segments created authentic engagement opportunities and allowed listeners to connect with the companies that support first responders and their families.

A Special Thank-You to Ghost Patch 

Some sponsors show up. Ghost Patch went above and beyond. As our Platinum Sponsor and a longtime friend of The Thin Line Rock Station, Ghost Patch not only backed the marathon in a major way, they gave two lucky listeners the chance to win 50 free custom patches each. That kind of generosity speaks volumes about who they are and what they stand for. We are truly grateful for their continued support and friendship. If you haven't checked them out, head over to ghostpatch.com, they are the real deal.
