'Summer Has Finally Arrived ' - A message from the Director of Recreation and Parks
Wednesday, July 8, 2020
The following column was part of the summer 2020
Ocean Pines Report
quarterly newsletter:
Debbie Donahue
Welcome to Summer 2020! What a different type of start to our summer season. We are happy to see everyone getting out and enjoying the sunshine.
Rec and Parks is so excited that we have been able to open the playgrounds and Skate Park and are open for Camp Ocean Pines this season. Although we have quite a few restrictions, we were able to have everything open by June 22, following all of the CDC and the state health department guidelines.
We are so excited that the Farmers Market continues to bring great products to White Horse Park every Saturday from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Fresh produce, breads, pies and cakes, along with the many artisans vendors are making for another great experience for the residents and people from surrounding areas.
Brand-new this year is the Pine’eer Craft Club’s NEW store, open every Saturday 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. and Sunday 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. It is a beautiful new store that offers so many handmade items including paintings, jewelry, bowls, American Girl doll clothes and much more. Please stop by! I’m sure you can find a special gift for someone, or just say “hi” to all the volunteers who work in the shop.
Ocean Pines Marina at The Yacht Club is where you can find your boating needs, open every day from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. You can pull up and grab some fuel, bait, ice and a t- shirt and have a great day on the water.
The friendly staff is always there to make you smile, and you can get some friendly conversation while you fill your boat. Those little boaters can also find ice cream in the dock building, along with a few varieties of water and soda.
The Yacht Club offers indoor and outdoor seating daily. From Thursday to Sunday, they also offer outside entertainment. Such a beautiful location to enjoy a nigh tout after a long day boating. There are also designated areas where you can pull up on your boat and enjoy a night of entertainment. Please note that all slips have been rented for this season. However, if you are interested in a boat slip in the future, please call Jessica at the Recreation Department at 410-641-7052. The Swim and Racquet Marina is a beautiful location on the bay to rent a slip. If you are interested in a slip at this marina you may also call Jessica.
I’m sure everyone is wondering about Concerts in the Park. At this time they are on hold, but I am hopeful that the restriction will be lifted and we will once again be able to come together and enjoy our concerts as we have for so many years.
We are looking forward to another great summer sea- son in Ocean Pines. I look forward to seeing you all soon.
