White Marlin Open Looking To Use 3rd Street Park As Primary Viewing Venue For Weigh-Ins; Shuttle Service From Convention Center A Possibility

OCEAN CITY – How different the White Marlin Open will look next month became clear on Tuesday as organizers said the proposed “satellite” viewing spot downtown at 3rd Street is planned to be the primary venue.

Earlier this summer, in an effort to avoid the typical crowds at the host Harbour Island marina grounds, White Marlin Open (WMO) officials pitched the municipal park area on the bayside between 3rd and 4th streets as a satellite viewing area with large viewing screens for the daily weigh-ins and family-friendly concessions and vendors.

Madelyne Rowan, who organizes the annual event with her family, told the Mayor and Council this week the WMO is really pushing the 3rd Street waterfront park area as the primary venue for this year’s event.

“Third Street is our goal,” she said. “People will still go to 14th Street, but we want to direct them to the venue downtown. Being able to move people from 14th Street to 3rd Street would be helpful.”

What a bunch of babies.When we had that god awful pandemic during and after Woodstock more people died but nothing was closed.We went along and accepted the fact that some called out sick,but nothing shut down and nothing was moved.Fear and panic lowers immunity and makes people more vulnerable.
