pledge levels and swag

All of our supporters get a great big thank you and the satisfaction that they have supported something as worthwhile as CJSW when they pledge their support for the station. That said, we have a few extra special gifts to show you how much your support is appreciated! Below is a list of the swag we are offering this year with the associated pledge levels.

CJSW Friends Card

As part of our effort to reward people who help us out, the friends card has become a very powerful piece of laminated cardboard. With it, you can get discounts at over 90 businesses citywide. For more info on the friends card and a complete list of the discounts available, click here.

CJSW Earplugs

Save your ears at all those rocking concerts you go to with these stylish fluorescent yellow earplugs! As an added bonus they come in a handy little package so you're not sticking pocket lint in your ears.

2008 Funding Drive T-shirt

This year's funding drive design was done by Tim Barnard whose fantastic artwork you can find here. The design is screened on American Apparel shirts and come in the colours of eggplant, dijon, melange red, melange brown, asphalt and white. Supply of some colours is limited, and are given away on a first come first serve basis, so pay your pledge today.

2008 Funding Drive Long Sleeve Shirt

Julie McLaughlin designed the artwork for this year's Live Sessions CD (see below) and we liked the artwork so much that we decided to also make some shirts with it. These shirts are made by a women's collective based in El Salvador. Shirts colours are red, wine, and brown, and are limited in supply.

CJSW Long Sleeve Shirt

Long sleeve shirts featuring the CJSW logo. Black and white shirts available in men's sizes, and women's shirts are available in black, brown and navy.

2008 Funding Drive Tote/Shopper Bag

You might already own some of our previous tote bag designs, but this year's bag is better than ever! It features the Tim Barnard artwork, screened on a red nylon bag. The best part is, it can fit even more records or groceries than any of our previous bags.

Knitted CJSW Toque

We found the company that used to knit all those stylish toques back in the eighties with the giant pom-poms on top, and found out that they hadn't used their toque knitting machine since 1989. We decided it's time to keep you warm while coating your head in knitted style. This could be the best thing we've ever done.

CJSW Hoodie

A classic, the CJSW hoodies have the CJSW logo screened on black fabric, and are available in both zip-up and pull-over styles for men and women.

Live Sessions At CJSW CD

Over the past year we've had a lot of great artists come through our studios for live performances, and we've collected some of those performances onto a double-disc CD. This record is not available in stores, and is only available with pledges during this Funding Drive. Artwork done by Calgary's own Julie McLaughlin, who's artwork you can find here.
