Tuesday night at 5:30 Banks Lady Braves are scheduled to travel to Astoria to take on the Lady Fishermen in Cowapa Volleyball. Westside Mobile Media plans on broadcasting audio of this event permitting Astoria High School allows media on site. We have put in a request with Astoria but have not yet heard back.

DID YOU KNOW WASHINGTON COUNTY HAS LOCAL RADIO ONCE AGAIN?

https://shoutout.wix.com/so/b2NThsLxz?languageTag=en#/main

Westside's Greatest Hits is an online radio station based in Western Washington County that exists for 2 reasons. 1. Entertain by playing the greatest Top 40 hits from the past 5 decades. 2. Keep Portland's Westside informed with local news/weather/sports the first 15 minutes of every hour 6A-10P pl...

Well 2020, started off on a high note, but just as I thought I was going to be given a career changing opportunity, God had other plans. I was scheduled to broadcast my first ever OSAA 4A State 🏀tournament, that would have gave me at least statewide exposure, but COVID cancelled the tournament. But, as was the case with my parent company Westside Mobile Media, personal lows, led to new opportunities. After getting bored waiting for high school sports to return, I came up with an idea in September to start a second, full service, around the clock internet music station playing 1970 to current TOP 40 Hits and local news for Portland’s Westside, called Westsides Greatest Hits. In July, I met the most amazing, incredible, beautiful woman, who is also the most affectionate, loving, caring and supportive Christian woman who I have ever met, and refuses to let me give up on my goals or ideas, even when I want to give up myself some days. I was also given the opportunity to broadcast minor league basketball (Greatest sport invented) starting in April, which will give my business exposure to the entire Portland metro area not just the Westside. Thank you all, and God bless you, for your emotional and mental support, and to my advertising partners, thank you for your financial support of Westside Mobile Media over the past 5 years (although no sports most of this year) and my new venture Westsides Greatest Hits.

Sounds like I will still be able to continue as video play by play (off camera) for Banks High School (mainly home games only) using their new Pixellot system but due to contractual obligations I will not be able to sell advertising until baseball when it will be covered by my sports company Westside Mobile Media. I will still try to find other schools to broadcast on days where Banks has a road game at a school with a similar system that doesn’t allow me to broadcast which are most schools in league except Tillamook and Astoria

First 6 hours of programming for Westsides Greatest Hits are “in the can” and ready to go starting at midnight on 11/29

High school sports in Oregon may be on hold but once they return Westside Mobile Media will FINALLY have the appropriate equipment to expand into streaming video broadcasts. Thanks to an anonymous donor who financially made the upgrade in equipment possible. The $1700 Panasonic HC-X1500 camera we ordered in late July is finally being sent directly from Panasonic and I should have it by late this week or early next. Next step is to get school approval for video once OSAA clears a return to high school sports!

Big thanks to Sheryl Olander and Sno Owl Custom Designs! She did a great job on the updated Westside Mobile Media logo that includes updated slogan and symbols that reflect music and news being added on the new “baby” station coming soon Westside’s Greatest Hits

Many of you know I am starting a music station called Westside’s Greatest Hits in January, playing the top hits from the 70s to today. Many of you also know the role faith plays in my life and my relationship with
Jesus Christ. Sundays I plan on playing Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) from the last 30 years, and am also looking for local ministers who would be interested in having their sermons included on a rotating basis. The tentative name for Sunday programming is “Faith on The Westside” I’m open to ideas for Sunday programming as well.

Westside Mobile Media and Westside’s Greatest Hits (of which Westside Mobile Media is parent company) are looking for advertising sponsors starting in 2021.

Westside Mobile Media is the only LOCALLY owned media source in Washington County and has been broadcasting Banks High School athletics since 2015. We anticipate upgrading from audio (with graphics) to video when OSAA resumes high school athletics (currently slated for January).

Westside’s Greatest Hits is a new online radio station coming to Washington County also in January. We will be playing your favorite hit music from 1970 to today plus have news twice an hour for Washington County (primarily Forest Grove/Cornelius and rural Western Washington County communities of Banks, Gaston, Roy, Manning, etc.) and Eastern Columbia County (Vernonia area).

If you are a business interested in advertising through either media source, please comment on this post or direct message me

09/20/2020

Adele, Whitney Houston, The Who, Elton John, The Jonas Brothers, Dave Matthews Band, Diana Ross, Garth Brooks, Shania Twain, Dido, Nickelback hear them all and more plus news for Western Washington and Eastern Columbia Counties coming in January 2021 to Westsides Greatest Hits. The Westside’s home for great music from the 70s to today plus news twice an hour.

09/06/2020

Westside's Greatest Hits is coming to Live 365 in January of 2021. Local commercials are not currently allowed due to Live 365's agreements with music licensing companies (PROs) but if your business is interested in sponsoring an hour of programming, we can mention you each break within your requested hour you choose. With 3 commercial breaks an hour, that's a minimum of 3 mentions per hour. To sponsor an hour of news and music programming is 100$ a month. So your business gets mentioned a minimum of 3 times a day x 7 days a week = 21 mentions per week x 4 weeks a month = A MINIMUM 84 MENTIONS PER MONTH!!! THAT'S ABOUT A DOLLAR PER MENTION!!! If you're a business in any of the following communities or a business that serves customers in Banks, Forest Grove, Cornelius, Vernonia, Gaston, Roy, Buxton, Manning we can help you reach more customers through online media.

Coming to the Westside Mobile Media family January 2021

09/03/2020

Westside Mobile Media, online broadcaster of Banks High School athletics, is currently working with a radio consultant to bring a second online station to the area. “Westside’s Greatest Hits” would be an online 24/7 full service radio station with 2 minutes of local news/weather and sports at the top of every hour from 6AM-10PM 7 days a week. It would play hits from the 70s 80s 90s up to current hit music. 5:00 minutes of commercials every hour gives area businesses a chance to purchase radio advertising to help promote their business and help us cover costs and hopefully make this a full time commitment, providing great information and music entertainment for Western Washington/Eastern Columbia County.

Ad rates for commercial advertising would be 100$ a month for 2 :30 second commercials a day. For those currently advertising on sports broadcasts, I realize this is more, but you get mentioned a lot more frequently with daily mentions. Those wanting to pay in bulk (like sports would get 6 months for the price of 5 (one month free) and 12 months for the price of 10 (2 months free). We are willing to negotiate on price for those interested but unable to afford those rates.

Is this something you would like to see or would be interested in sponsoring?

Check out the ALL NEW westsidemobilemedia.net for schedule, team info, sponsors, contact info and coming this 20-21 season broadcasts of Banks High School athletics

07/23/2020

Based on the latest update from OSAA last night, it sounds like fall sports contests (possibly minus football) will start 9/23. Football still COULD start on time but likely not until late winter/early spring. It sounds like each regular season will be condensed down to 2 months with a 6 game football schedule meaning likely (following the lead of Pac-12) league games only (eliminating Gladstone, Estacada, sadly Hidden Valley, and Rainier). A final determination will be made August 3 one week from Monday. At that time Westside Mobile Media will begin searching for sponsors for the upcoming season of Banks High School 2020-21 athletic broadcasts that (pending school approval) will include live video. If you are a business that would like to sponsor please contact me and I will reach out to you in early August.

If you’re hurting for sports, you can relive some of the greatest moments of the last year in Banks athletics by going to shnsports.com/Westside or by searching Banks Braves on YouTube

Here is an idea for Banks fans to think about. If sports are played but fans are not allowed at games this fall, schools will be hurting for gate fees. I do not like charging a subscription or a fee to follow broadcasts but in this instance I would be willing to make an exception and donate the proceeds back to the athletic program to hopefully cover the revenue missed from gate fees. It’s called a paywall. People would pay a set amount by entering their credit card number to unlock access to the game with the money going directly to the school. I would be willing to continue this partnership even (hopefully) after COVID giving the school all proceeds from payments and Westside Mobile Media would keep all ad revenue. Please let me know what you think. This could also be easily set up at other schools

06/25/2020

A week prior to the last Banks athletic event I broadcast (Boys Basketball playoff against Stayton in early March) Wauna Credit Union had just signed up to be pregame sponsor for the Spring 2020 season. They were only able to advertise for that one game. In an effort to make good on our word, Wauna Credit Union has agreed to be the pregame sponsor for September-January (or when sports return) at no charge since COVID kept us from broadcasting the Spring sports season

06/25/2020

Special thanks to Kristi Van Meter who for the second year in a row will be sponsoring the OSAA 4A Top 10 Rankings Presented by Kristi Van Meter at Caliber Home Loans once Banks Braves broadcasts return

Note: Westside Mobile Media has not received word from OSAA on when or if football will be played this season

9/4: @ Gladstone
9/11: ESTACADA
9/18: HIDDEN VALLEY—this or Gladstone will likely be the toughest non-league contest of the season as 2021 QB Sam Vidlak (OSU commit and quickly getting national attention across recruiting boards including 24/7 Sports) Mustangs will return to 4A District 5 falling just short in a shootout 41-34 to Santiam Chr. of Adair Village—just North of Corvallis— in the 3A state championship last year in Roseburg
9/25: @ (3A) Rainier
10/2: *ASTORIA
10/9: *VALLEY CATHOLIC
10/16: * @ Seaside, #12 seed last year lost @ #5 Marist Catholic of Eugene 20-13
10/23: *MILWAUKIE (5A but dropping to 4A for football only)
10/30: * @ Tillamook, then #15 seed upset then #2 Mazama of Klamath Falls last year, 19-14 on the road in First Round, then lost at #10 The Dalles-Wahtonka in a quarterfinal shootout 58-51

Banks will be looking to defend their 4A District 1 league title and make a return trip to the state championships after falling 21-0 in Hermiston to La Grande ending a 22 game winning streak

All games will be broadcast live (streaming video or audio) on SHNsports.com/Westside or by searching Banks Football or Westside Mobile Media on YouTube with Trevor Beard on play by play joined by former Cottage Grove Voice and Linfield broadcaster Jonathan Lee

As of right now Westside Mobile Media anticipates there being high school sports in the fall. Most counties (as of last night and today) have been approved for Phase 2 and although Washington County is CURRENTLY not in that list, I think it’s safe to assume (based on the timing of counties approved for Phase 1) it will likely only be a couple of weeks at most for us to get to Phase 2. What that looks like might be a little scary. Lots of different proposals are being considered including switching the timing of football and baseball seasons. Regardless, Westside Mobile Media May be needed now more than ever with the possibility fans may not be in the stands come September. We would like to gather a list of possible sponsors for the upcoming 2020-21 Banks Braves athletics season. We will not ask for payment however until we receive confirmation from OSAA that Fall sports will take place. Sponsors will also be included in our new weekly podcast “Westside Weekly Wrap-up” (once sports return) presented by LaHaie’s. We also plan on expanding to include live video coverage. Also joining me this Fall will be Jonathan Lee most recently involved with Linfield broadcasts.

05/07/2020

This fall when I begin to restart my podcast WESTSIDE WEEKLY WRAP-UP with The Dean (me) and Heff (co-host Mark Heffernan) we will make an effort to have one guest per show. This morning on the way into work I had a EUREKA moment! The show title words each start with W. When you sound out W it is double u.

That got me to thinking. Each guest segment will be called “The Triple Dub”. Most basic interviewing questions start with W. “The Triple Dub” starting with guest Brock Markham we will ask each guest a minimum of 3 questions, during our last segment after talking local sports.

05/07/2020

Coming this Fall (or when high school sports return) the Westside Weekly Wrap Up Presented by LaHaie’s Custom Embroidery and Lettermen’s Jackets. An hour long weekend podcast dedicated to sports in the following order 1. Banks High School athletics 2. Cowapa League athletics 3. 4A High School athletics 4. Oregon/NW collegiate athletics. 5. Athletics involving local professional teams in the NBA, NFL, MLB, etc. maybe even MLS. We’re open to guests and ideas for topics

05/06/2020

Per the OSAA Milwaukie will be joining 4A District 1 (Cowapa Football) replacing Molalla for football only when Fall sports return hopefully in September 2020

05/05/2020

OSAA met earlier today and have made no decisions as of yet on Fall sports for 20-21. They will meet again May 18 to discuss any updates made by Governor and Oregon Health Authority.
