Wicomico County’s Roaring Point and Cove Road beaches to reopen Friday

SALISBURY, Md. – Wicomico County officials will reopen Roaring Point and Cove Road beaches effective the morning of Friday, May 22.

Visitors must limit gatherings to 10 people or less and practice social distancing using guidelines from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC; https://www.cdc.gov/).

“We encourage people to get outside, but in a safe and responsible manner,” said Steve Miller, director of Wicomico County Recreation, Parks & Tourism. “Public cooperation with social distancing guidelines is critical in order to keep the beaches open.”

Parking is limited at both locations and park rangers will be enforcing parking rules.

Decisions made by county officials are fluid and can be changed at any time.

The Wicomico Recreation, Parks, Tourism and Civic Center department will continue to monitor the COVID-19 situation through regular updates from the Wicomico County Health Department and the Department of Emergency Services. Updates will be shared with the press, as well as posted to department websites and social media outlets.

He says to "get outside". We've never been locked inside our homes. This whole time, you could get out in the fresh air & exercise, and do essential things like go buy groceries or see your Dr. if necessary. People act like they've been in prison.

Wicomico County rec and parks staff is 1) overstaffed, 2) overpaid, 3) uneducated, 4) lazy, 5) big time boozers, & 6) a great waste of taxpayer money. I believe recreation is important to any community but most of this bunch should be terminated and replaced by fewer and more competent people.

748 is right. winterplace park seems to be the place for "workers" to hide. why do they need so many "workers" when no games are being played? obviously there is some seriously poor supervision going on. and by the way, thank you veterans.

How did Veterans affect the lazy worker attitudes at Winter Place?

Miller really needs to go manage something he can be competent at like a ant farm.
