20 Candles On ESPN West Palm’s Cake
• ESPN West Palm is excited to celebrate 20 years of defining sports for fans and partners in Palm Beach County and the Treasure Coast. Good Karma Brands (GKB) originally launched ESPN West Palm in 2003 on 760 AM. Today, ESPN West Palm includes WUUB (ESPN 106.3), WEFL (Deportes 760), ESPN West Palm on WPTV/WFLX, the Roofclaim.com Boca Raton Bowl, and The High School “Top 63” Awards as well as other digital assets and events.
Stephanie Prince, VP/Market Manager of ESPN West Palm, commented, “Up until 2003, West Palm Beach was the largest market in the country without a sports radio station of its own. We are proud of the team, and the relationship we’ve established with our fans via the audio, event, coverage and digital platforms we have built. We are excited to celebrate and give back to the community by donating $20,000 to various local charities.”
To kick off the 20th anniversary celebration, personalities throughout GKB who have impacted ESPN West Palm over the last 20 years will host a 20-hour broadcast beginning at midnight on Thursday, March 3. The mayor of West Palm Beach will also proclaim Friday, March 3 as “ESPN West Palm Day,” to recognize the station’s impact in the town in which it operates.
Steve Politziner, President of Good Karma Brands, who moved to West Palm Beach to launch and run the station initially, noted, “The success of ESPN West Palm is intimately tied to the passion of area sports fans, the talent and coverage team dedicated to serving them and the advertising partners who have successfully leveraged the assets to achieve their business goals. So many teammates throughout GKB started at ESPN West Palm and have carried their experiences, education and grit to other markets across GKB. We are excited to celebrate with our partners, fans and teammates on a great 20 years and look forward to the future.”
