A typical assumption for a resort town like Ocean City is that the fun winds down as soon as the sun sets on Labor Day weekend.
But in reality, the end of summer now means the start of one of the most event-heavy seasons of the year.
“We are about to roll into a very busy couple of months,” Special Events Director Frank Miller said Monday during a Tourism Commission meeting.
Starting off with Wine on the Beach Sept. 8 and 9, sizable tourist-heavy events are set for every weekend leading up into November. And then comes the Winterfest of Lights, which staff members said will be bigger and more expansive this year.
“Things will be going on in town that will make this a larger impact than just Winterfest,” Miller said
I’m waiting for the season that mostly clears the beach and nutso traffic. Let’s call it the elbow season.
As a resident I think we should have ONE weekend where there is nothing going on.
