Pieces of Our Past
On Sunday, October 11th, the live broadcast Pieces of Our Past shared with viewers several never before seen artifacts. Many of these artifacts are remnants of Ocean City’s oldest establishments. Some of the items are unique as they are old - a wooden leg and original rocking chair from the Commander Hotel are just a few of the items talked about during the show.
Pieces of Our Past is a fundraiser that will help strengthen and grow the George and Suzanne Hurley Memorial Scholarship Fund. This scholarship is open to Stephen Decatur High School graduates who plan on furthering their education at Salisbury University, Wor-Wic Community College, or UMES. To donate, check form below.
