New York-based Border Media has announced that it has assumed ownership of Adult Hits WLGR-FM (93.5), serving Glens Falls, Queensbury and the Lake George region. The station is being acquired from Sticks Media LLC, owned by Todd Nixon, in lieu of a promissory note held by Border Media.

According to the company, the transition is intended to provide operational continuity and a seamless experience for listeners and local advertisers. Border Media said it plans to bring its focus on local broadcasting and audio technology innovation to the station as it begins a new chapter under the company's ownership.

"We are very pleased to bring WLGR into the Border Media portfolio," said Border Media CEO Ricki Lee. "While this transition stems from a financial restructuring, we view it as a great opportunity to invest our resources and long-term vision into the station. Our goal is to provide stability and high-quality local media that genuinely connects with the community."

Nixon expressed confidence in the station's future under the new ownership. "I am glad to see the station land with a team as capable and forward-thinking as Border Media," he said. "I know WLGR is in excellent hands for its next phase of growth."
