WELCOME MESSAGE
Dear Neighbors,
Say good-bye to winter and hello to spring and summer. Get up, go outside and get active. This issue of Splash! is your guide to an ocean of fun that awaits you here in Ocean City.
Pick a park and go to a game. If you like softball, sign up for a league or visit a game at Northside Park and enjoy the comforts of the new Softball Pavilion featuring all new restroom facilities, a full service concession stand and vending area. We hope you visit and sample the tasty fare at the Home Run Café.
Pick a park and go for a concert. If you like music, come to Sundaes in the Park at Northside Park at 6:00 p.m. Sundays starting on July 11 or enjoy Concerts on the Beach each Wednesday at 8:00 p.m. starting on July 14. If you are looking for some entertainment and a fun time on Tuesday evenings you should plan to attend Sunset Party Night at Sunset Park downtown at 7:00 p.m. for music and refreshments starting on July 6. Or how about catching a Free Movie on the Beach on Monday and Friday nights at dusk starting on June 28. Details of these and other events this summer are available at www.oceancitymd.gov or in this issue of Splash!
Visit your favorite spot on the beach. Captain Butch Arbin and the entire Ocean City Beach Patrol staff have been busy preparing for the new swim season, which opens on Saturday, May 29. Guards will be on duty on the beach from 10:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. from opening day until Sunday, September 26. This issue of Splash! contains some important advice to help you and your family have a safe and enjoyable beach season. Always remember to “keep your feet in the sand until the guard is in the stand”.
Choose some camps and enjoy the fun. Our summer camp schedule is brimming over with fun choices for children. Our camp season opens the week of June 21 with Camp Horizon and Scamper Camp. We are pleased to announce that we have added a Baseball Camp powered by Ripken Baseball starting June 30. For a full description of all of our children’s camps, pick up a copy of the Beach Ball Camp Brochure the next time you are at Northside Park or go to www.ocsportscamps.com
We hope you fine something exciting to try in this issue of SPLASH! Whatever you choose, we think you will “Discover an Ocean of Fun!”
