Ocean City Beach Patrol

A Lifeguard's Beach Safety Tips

In recent years Kristin Joson, Web Editor/Public Relations Coordinator along with Captain Arbin and Sgt. Fisher worked with the Steve Green, editor of The Dispatch/Maryland Coast Dispatch to publish weekly safety tips. We want to thank the Dispatch for helping us fulfill two important parts of our mission statement, prevention and education. We appreciate their part in helping to inform and educate the public about beach safety.

The summer of 2011 will be Sgt. Ed Fisher’s 20th year working for the Beach Patrol. In the off-season, he is an elementary school teacher in Montgomery County. The OCBP consists of over 200 men and women dedicated to ocean rescue and maintaining a safe and orderly environment on Ocean City’s beach. The Surf Rescue Technicians guard the beach seven days a week from 10 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. Always remember to “Keep Your Feet in the Sand Until the Lifeguards in the Stand!”
