[edit] History

After a stint as Cow Country, Froggy 102.7 went on the air in 2002 in its current Hybrid AC incarnation. The station plays standard Hot AC artists, but also markets itself as having the most variety; a typical hour's playlist will include several current pop hits, as well as Disco, Country, Classic R & B, and Classic Rock.

The station is known for its involvement with the local community; the airstaff averages nearly 200 personal appearances a year, and does a considerable amount of community-oriented charity work. The station's signature event is a Polar Plunge promotion called The Leprechaun Leap, which raises money for United Cancer Services of Elkhart County.
