(Teeswater) - With less than a month to the opening of the International Plowing Match (IPM) 2008, the Partnership Committee was very pleased to recognize CKNX`s in kind donation of promotional efforts and entertainment to IPM 2008 in the amount of $100,000. CKNX is one of two Pride of Bruce Sponsors, the other being Ontario Power Generation. The executive and several of the committee chairpeople were on hand to personally thank Scott Pettigrew, AM920 CKNX Program Director and Jen Voisin, Community Marketing Representative.

Throughout the last year CKNX has promoted IPM activities and events. They will continue to provide IPM 2008 great coverage during the match with The Talk Show featuring Bryan Allen live from the site and on your way to the IPM tune into AM920 CKNX for traffic reports. AM920's Farm Editor Andrew Campbell will have multiple reports on the IPM leading up to and throughout the match.

A big highlight will be the line up of Canadian entertainers on the CKNX and Main IPM stage each of the five days of the match. Greg Hanna, who was raised on a farm in eastern Ontario will be flying in from Nashville, Sean Hogan of Saskatoon will be stopping by as he moves his singing career to Nashville this fall as well, Diane Chase and Jamie Warren will be coming from the Kitchener Waterloo area to perform and up and comer Craig Moritz of Edmonton is scheduled to perform.

Complete IPM Information can be received by calling 1-877-IPM-2008 or visiting the website: www.ipm2008.ca.
