State Will Fund Northside Park Exercise Facility on 125th Street

Just like there’s always room for dessert in an otherwise full stomach, there’s always room for free money in an otherwise finished budget.

But, interestingly enough, this particular fiscal digestif is intended to help one combat the effects of one’s desserts. A recent set of budget amendments before the Ocean City Council revealed that the town has been given a grant for the current fiscal year through the Maryland Department of Natural Resources for the construction of an outdoor exercise facility at Northside Park.

City Parks and Recreation Department head Tom Shuster said he is excited to get the work done as soon as possible on a project that will help keep Ocean City residents and visitors outside and active in the coming off-season.
