Max the Fire Dog spent part of his morning visiting our Recreation & Parks team as they work hard to make Ocean City look its best for another busy summer season!

From planting colorful flowers to keeping our parks beautiful, these employees are helping make our town brighter every day. Max was happy to stop by, soak up some attention, and thank the crew for all they do behind the scenes.

The OC Beautification Committee celebrated Arbor Day Friday with the second-graders at OC Elementary School. The students performed songs, told jokes, and gave facts about why trees are so important to all of us.

We were joined by the American Legion color guard, the OC Police Department and staff from the Ocean City Recreation and Parks Department, who provided the tree that the students planted at the school.

Thanks to all who participated and attended this annual event!
