Downtown Ocean City always has fun things to do Downtown and Boardwalk places to be for shopping, dining and special events Looking for something to do while in Ocean City? You can always find something fun and interesting in downtown Ocean City, with its attractions for all ages and interests, such as amusements, museums, parks and water activities. In addition, the downtown has a variety of hotels and restaurants. Downtown Ocean City and its Boardwalk are home to a great number of restaurants and other food establishments. And
don’t forget our famous Maryland blue crabs. Along with the eateries on the Boardwalk, other popular options can be found along the bayside and streets of the downtown area. Whether you’re looking for a quiet crowd or a party crowd, you don’t have to look far when you’re downtown. Another major draw of the downtown area is its number of hotels and motels offering a variety of styles and rates. Some of these have served Ocean City visitors for generations, while others are quite new. In addition, plenty of accommoda-
tions are available for daily, weekly, seasonal, or year-round rental. While the Boardwalk businesses provide a multitude of retail goods to visitors, from sweets to graphic-Ts, businesses off the Boardwalk offer more of a specialty character. The next time you are in the downtown area, be sure to stop in for some shopping. Here are several other reasons to visit downtown Ocean City, whether it’s during the offseason or in the height of summer: • Special events • parks and open spaces (Sunset Park, Somerset Plaza, the Inlet Park and the Ocean Bowl
Skate Park, the oldest public operating skate park in the country) • Amusements and arcades • Ocean City LifeSaving Station Museum • Ripley’s Believe It or Not Museum • Water sports and fishing • Bicycles and Segways • Historic buildings • Public Art. The next time you are downtown, take advantage of the many things to do and see on and off the Boardwalk. (The OCDC is a nonprofit organization charged with revitalizing downtown Ocean City.

Paint program combines art with power
As part of its extensive public art program, the OCDC’s painting of utility boxes are one if its most visible programs. To date, 25 utility boxes have been painted. These utility boxes are owned by Delmarva Power who reviews and approves each utility box prior to painting. The OCDC Public Art Committee reviews each painting prior to start to ensure it has an Eastern Shore theme. Although most of the painted utility boxes are located south of 17th Street, there are several painted boxes completed in the past two years north of 17th Street. The OCDC paints each utility box with an Ocean City blue background color and then the artist paints the artwork. After the artwork is completed, the OCDC provides a layer of clear coat to protect the art from UV rays. Each year the OCDC cleans each box and provides a fresh layer of clear coat. Some of the original utility boxes are being planned for new artworks since they were completed in 2004 and 2005. Individuals and businesses looking to sponsor a newly painted utility box should contact the Continued on page 13
Noted local artist Gerilyn Gaskill recently painted a utility box located midblock on First Street between the Boardwalk and Baltimore Avenue in downtown Ocean City. Jeff and Jamie Albright, owners of the nearby Albright’s Motel, sponsored Gaskill to paint this box with an Ocean City beach theme on three sides.

Artist Katelyn Millison completed the second of four sides of this utility box located at South Philadelphia Avenue and Dorchester Street. She will be returning this fall to continue the project. This project is being sponsored by Terry and Janet Hough.
Utility boxes put on a pretty face Continued from page 10 OCDC at 410- 289-7739. These sponsorships pay for the artists which generally run about $350 to $500 depending on the artist and size of the utility box to be painted. After the artwork is completed, a small plaque recognizing the sponsor is placed on the box. For this past year, OCDC has partnered with Sherwin Williams of 119th Street and Coastal Highway who has
donated paint and paint supplies for several paint projects. For more pictures of the painted utility boxes visit www.ocdc.org.

Backshore Brewing Company’s popularity continues to soar New lineup of handcrafted brews, food and same fun staff make it a must-see Ocean City destination OCEAN CITY, MARYLAND
By BETHANY HOWE
s the Backshore team gears up for it’s fourth summer, the crew is finding that more and more customers are returning each year. The iconic painted VW van has turned the brewery into the perfect vacation photo opportunity. Tourists line up every day in the summer to sit inside the van for photos, while sipping the awardwinning beers that have skyrocketed to popularrity. Brewmaster Adam Shockley brews on a daily basis and is constantly experimenting with new flavors and styles. Backshore has six beers on tap that are always changing. Whatever your taste in beer, you will find one to fall in love with at Backshore. Styles range from complex, satisfying the most finicky of beer geeks, to mild summer ales used as ‘gateway’ flavors to lure the masses into the craft beer world. Samples of all six craft beers are served in skateboard flights that come in various colors. In addition to the ever-changing six taps of craft beer, Backshore Brewing Co. has crafted up something new this year: Hoop Tea, a wildly popular alcoholic tea drink. It is brewed with purified water, tea leaves, organic cane sugar and naturally fermented alcohol. The tea is 4 percent alcohol and almost entirely organic.
A
Backshore Brewing Co., located next to Hammerheads on the Beach, ser ves samples of its craft beer, also known as flights, in skateboards of various colors.
Backshore is distributing two flavors this summer: white mango and a classic, southern-style sweet lemon that you can find at any of your favorite bars & restaurants in Maryland. A wider variety of teas is available at the brewery for you to try or take home in a growler. The brewery also serves up more than just drinks; a full menu is available, as well. Favorites include homemade specialty personal pizzas and colossal pretzels – a homemade soft pretzel bigger than your head topped with delicious crab dip and various other dipping sauces. Backshore Brewing Co. defines the true essence of the beach lifestyle. “We work hard, but never serious. We brew our beer in the salty air, with our toes in the sand and the sun on our faces,” says owner Danny Robinson. Locals will tell you that to get the full Ocean City beach experiences, you have to visit Backshore Brewing Co. this summ mer.

“Drive in Disguise” participants from previous years have ranged from those taking the highly amusing route to those who enjoy the creepy approach.
Sixth ‘Drive in Disguise’ Boardwalk parade in Oct. For the sixth year, residents and visitors with a vintage Ocean City license plates will be allowed to ride down the Boardwalk during the annual OC Vintage License Plate Rally, which will take place Saturday, Oct. 22. Continuing with the Drive in Disguise theme, participants wishing to decorate their cars also will be allowed to ride down the Boardwalk. “The rally has grown to include marching bands and walking units,” said Mayor Rick Meehan. “The Halloween theme has really broadened the event. There’s a real competition in decorating the cars.” Decorated cars will join the OC vintage plate cars during the rally, which will roll-off at 27th Street at 3 p.m. Vehicles will drive off the Boardwalk at the inlet parking lot. The public will be able to vote for their favorite decorated car. Each vote is $1. A People’s Choice trophy as well as additional trophies will be awarded. In addition, various local organizations will have information booths set up and a DJ will play music. Several
local businesses will offer a 15 percent discount to participants for the weekend. “We are still working on other possible components to the day,” said event organizer Nancy Howard. “Last year we added bicycles. The entire event is an attempt to create a weekend that will bring visitors to join in the fun.” There is a $25 donation fee for non-vintage license plate participants and those vehicles and bicycles must be decorated. There is no fee for those with Ocean City “vintage” license plates (these are not vintage car tags but the special Ocean City plate). Proof of insurance is required for all participants. Proceeds from the event will be benefit the Ocean City Downtown Association. Registration forms are available at www.downtownassociation.net. For additional information, contact Howard at 443-235-4405 or e-mail neffiehoward@comcast.net.
