The City of West Palm Beach’s WPB-TV 18: A Treasure Chest of Stories from Your Backyard

Hurricane drills, the plight of the homeless and Itsy-Bitsy Yoga – these are just three of the more than 300 stories WPB-TV 18, the City of West Palm Beach’s government television station, has brought residents over the past three years.

Learn what the Mandel Public Library has to offer. Capture the entrepreneurial excitement of home-grown businesses. Feast your eyes on the latest ArtLife installations. Or sit back and relax while learning about the City’s nature preserve, Grassy Waters. WPB-TV opens doors and brings you inside the latest City events and programs.

Veteran reporter Sheryl Kahn, and the WPB-TV team, have climbed the stairs with West Palm Beach and County firefighters during the annual 9-11 Memorial tributes, accompanied code enforcement officers into the trenches, joined performers on stage at SunFest and captured the effortless swing of Tiger Woods in christening The Park, the City’s municipal golf complex. Our team has put a face on the homeless crisis and captured the heart-warming stories when the City’s Homeless Outreach team places a family in a new, permanent setting. View these entertaining and thought-provoking glimpses into the City that the mainstream media doesn’t feature.
