Well, it looks like my August vacation plans are back on schedule.
Ocean City, Maryland, is a huge vacation draw for Marylanders as well as spring-breakers, who missed out on their yearly trek to the east coast utopia. Families travel to the expansive beach before going back to school and to have a great time.
With COVID-19 in effect, many families were worried that Ocean City would not be open for business due to the mask restrictions, beach closures, and social distancing.

It seems like that has been taken care of, and the beach will be open for business. Here come the smiles, right?
[Fox5DC] The beaches and the world-famous boardwalk of Maryland’s most popular coastal resort town will reopen this Saturday, according to an Ocean City councilmember.
Councilmember Mary Knight tells FOX 5 that Ocean City’s beaches, boardwalk, and inlet parking lot will officially reopen to the public on May 9.
Knight says six hotels are also open but they are only available to essential workers at this time. This will remain a policy until May 22 or when Maryland’s stay-at-home order is lifted.
Masks are not required at Ocean City, however, social distancing guidelines will be in effect.
Knight says she and the council want to “see the effects” of a gradual re-opening.
Will I see you there? Share your comments below and let me know if your beaches are opening up for business.
