June’s 2022 WCWP Hall of Fame Ceremony ended with a big announcement by master of ceremonies Dan Cox, WCWP station manager from 2002 to 2022.

Marjorie Abrams Hyman, daughter of Emerson founder Benjamin Abrams, graciously donated $500,000 to WCWP! The donation will go toward new equipment and a complete renovation of the Abrams Communications Center.

Dan will oversee the renovation, which began this Sunday, August 20. This meant the June 3 ceremony announcement was unofficial; for attendees’ ears only. We were not allowed to divulge publicly until the official release. Now, we can.

So, here are the photos I couldn’t include in my ceremony recap:

There is no more uncertainty. WCWP is here to stay for at least another decade. Thank goodness. Thank Marjorie Abrams Hyman. Thank Joan Yonke. Thank LIU (Long Island University) and LIU Post.
