“I have worked with many public relations professionals throughout my career and John is the best. I am not surprised that Maroon Public Relations is a great success and I am pleased to call them Ripken Baseball’s firm.”
Turner Sports PR has worked with a number of agencies to promote some of our high-profile NBA, MLB, PGA and NASCAR sporting events, with Maroon PR setting itself apart with their tireless efforts, multitudes of industry contacts and straight forward advice and expertise.

About Us
We drive growth through relationships.
After nearly two decades in communications and branding for a number of sports organizations and professional teams, public relations specialist John Maroon launched Maroon PR in April 2006.
Maroon PR has experienced growth each year since it opened its doors. Originally an agency focused on sports and entertainment clients, the firm experienced tremendous success, leading to the creation of two distinct divisions in May of 2009 - Sports & Entertainment and Corporate public relations. Under this new structure, Executive Vice President Tim Richardson oversees the Sports & Entertainment division, while Vice President Mitchell Schmale manages the firm’s increasing corporate clientele. Each division is guided by President John Maroon. Click here to view Maroon PR's Corporate Brochure.
