Media
WBGD 91.9FM went on air in 1974, formerly located at Brick High School. The station was later relocated to Brick Memorial High School. The radio station was the creation of a teacher called Robert Boesch who taught electronics at the Brick High School during the 1960s, 1970s, and the 1980s. This station was a student-run operation and received the FCC license from the FCC for Educational Broadcasting.
The most important broadcast was the first ever state high school football championship match of 1974. The Brick Green Dragons beat Camden by a score of 21-20 on the last play of the match to win the first state trophy.
In 2007, during regular roofing maintenance and repair, the broadcast tower was cut off the roof, and it was never returned or renewed. In 2010 WBGD’s license was revoked.
