Short Lengthened; Harrison On The Range

• Townsquare Media Wyoming shares two major pieces of good news: 1) The company has contractually extended the services of Wyoming Regional Operations Manager Donovan Short through 2020, and 2) Don Harrison has been hired as the OM Country KLEN (106.3 Cowboy Country), Classic Rock KIGN (101.9 King FM) and News-Talk KGAB-AM/Cheyenne, and KCGY (Y-95 Country) and News-Talk-Sports KOWB-AM/Laramie. Harrison most recently programmed Connoisseur Media Mainstream Rock WWSK (94-3 The Shark)/Long Island.

Commenting on the acquisition of major market vet Harrison, Short (left) said, “We’ve been on the hunt for a strong leader to build on the great things happening with our teams on Wyoming’s Front Range, and were fortunate to connect with a talented programmer like Don, who truly gets the Townsquare approach and is excited about putting down some Wyoming roots — can’t wait to set the table for 2018.”

Weighing in on his extension, Short said, “Working alongside our Wyoming crew, most of all Wyoming Market Pres. Bob Price, has been the highlight of my career. As my ‘radio odometer’ gets ready to turn over 20 years with these brands next year, I’m mindful that it’s rare in our biz to get an opportunity to stay in one place for that amount of time, which speaks to a great team and a pretty incredible place to call home. Thanks to Buffalo Bob, Bill Wilson, Dhruv Prasad, Erik Hellum, Kurt Johnson and Kevin Godwin for the confidence; excited to be in the ‘Townsquare’ for more years to come.”

Harrison (right) commented, “Thanks to Kurt Johnson, Donovan Short, Leslie Hill, Jordan Dawson and Bob Price for providing an amazing opportunity to manage a couple Townsquare clusters and live in one of the most beautiful, healthiest areas in country — hot springs, snow-capped mountains, the Grand Tetons, Yellowstone… Wyoming is a natural wonderland!”
