Ocean City plans safety efforts for upcoming senior weeks

WASHINGTON – It’s a tradition that makes parents nervous. As high school graduates head to the beaches over the next few weeks, officials in Ocean City, Maryland have plans in place to keep them safe.

“We want you to ride public transportation,” said Ocean City Mayor Rick Meehan.

For $5, high school graduates visiting the beach can ride the bus for a week.

“Just keep on that wristband. If you just do that, it gives your parents a bit of relief that you won’t be out driving, and you’re going to be riding transportation,” Meehan said speaking to graduating seniors.

Teens can visit one of four locations: City Hall, the Convention Center, the police department or the city’s North or South Tram station to get a voucher.

    3 weeks of ugh, then
    - the firefighters and airshow return;
    - followed by 4th of July whoopee;
    - traditional family vacations kick in until Mid Aug;
    - then from last week of Aug until Apr IN SEASON returns for us locals!

    Labor day isn't the end of the season anymore because of all the schools in MD/VA/PA so hell bent on opening before labor day.

    Only praying for a safe June Bug season!
