After stepping down as Program Director of Hubbard Country 103.1 WIRK West Palm Beach in February but staying on as afternoon host, then being promoted back up to APD/MD in August, Sammy Cruise is exiting to become Operations Manager of Townsquare Media’s Country 97.5 WOKQ Dover/Portsmouth NH and Classic Hits “102.1/105.3 The Shark” WSAK Hampton NH/WSHK Kittery ME.
Cruise had been with WIRK since 2009. He previously programmed WCTQ Sarasota FL and served as MD of KWNR Las Vegas and APD/MD of KBQI Albuquerque.
Cruise succeeds Robby Bridges, who posted on Facebook last night that it was his decision to exit to “see what’s behind door #3”. Bridges joined Townsquare in January after five years in Detroit programming Country “93.1 Nash-FM” WDRQ and Hot AC 96.3 WDVD.
