Socially Speaking: Happy New Year!

The Town of Ocean City has begun collecting Christmas trees. If you don’t know what to do with your Christmas tree as its shedding needles like mad, drop it off at the 100th Street Municipal Parking lot collection area. Through January 31st you may take Christmas trees, minus tinsel and ornaments, to the municipality. They will take discarded trees to the local landfill where they will be ground into mulch. For more information, call 410-289-8967.

The cost for carriage rides is $10, children under the age of 3 are free. Want to go for a ride? Meet the horses at the inlet on Saturday or Sunday between 11 am and 5 pm. Davis plans to give rides in OC until April 2013.
