Family Fun Nights, Concerts in the Park begin this week

Family Fun Nights and Concerts in the Park, two weekly summertime traditions hosted by the Recreation and Parks Department, return to Ocean Pines this week.

Family Fun Nights, held Wednesdays, June 22-Aug. 16 from 6-8 p.m. at the Yacht Club Pool, feature music, games, prizes and swim fun for the entire family. Food will be available for purchase.

The admission fee is $3 for Ocean Pines swim members (must show membership card), $5 for Ocean Pines residents and $7 for non-residents. Only cash is accepted, and only those swimming pay a fee. 

Because this is an after-hour Recreation and Parks Department special event, pool receipts do not grant admission.

Concerts in the Park, Ocean Pines' free summer concert series, will be held every Thursday, June 23-Aug. 25, from 7-9 p.m. in White Horse Park.

Attendees are encouraged to bring lawn chairs or blankets for these family-friendly musical performances. BYOB is permitted, and food will be available for purchase. 

The following performers are scheduled for this year's series:

• June 23 - Uptown Band
• June 30 - Opposite Directions
• July 7 - Dusty Vinyl
• July 14 - On The Edge
• July 21 - Delmarva Big Band
