Beasley Media Group has announced today Q105’s Mason Dixon kick off the celebration of his 40th anniversary on the radio airwaves on Tuesday, February 27th at 8:30am with Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn presenting him with an official proclamation proclaiming February 27th “Mason Dixon Day” in Tampa Bay!
“40 years of doing what love, I feel like I’ve never worked a day in my life,” said Dixon. “My job, plus raising a family in the most beautiful area anywhere, makes me feel truly a lucky man and I’m still loving every minute of it.”
As the host of the Q105 morning show, heard weekday mornings from 5:30am – 10:00am, Mason utilizes humor, compassion and community awareness to help entertain Tampa Bay listeners on their drive to work.
The radio veteran is extremely involved in the community. In 2002, he created his own Florida non-profit, the “Mason Dixon Christmas Wish Fund, Inc.” Through the “Christmas Wish”, Dixon has been able to help families who have fallen on hard times throughout the holidays, especially those who may have fallen through the cracks of public assistance. Over the past 16 years, the non-profit organization has raised over 2 million dollars and has helped more than 5,000 local families
