Event to benefit Memorial Foundation education programs, March 10
Tuesday, February 21, 2023
(Feb. 22, 2023) The Worcester County Veterans Memorial Foundation will host an event on March 10 at the Ocean Pines Yacht Club to benefit the foundation’s educational outreach programs.
The outreach programs sponsor annual field trips to the memorial for all fifth-grade students in Worcester County.
The foundation recently released a video about the memorial, its mission, and the educational program for students viewable online here:

. Each student also receives a student activity booklet to take home, encouraging further discussions.
“This event will directly benefit our educational outreach programs,” Veterans Memorial Foundation President Marie Gilmore said. “We feel this is one of most important things that the foundation does, and that all children should realize the sacrifices that veterans have made to protect our freedoms.”
Entertainer Tony Pace, previously named as the event headliner, announced this week that he would not participate.
Pace released a statement this week:
“It is with profound sadness that circumstances have forced me to withdraw from participating in the March 10 Worcester County Veterans Memorial Foundation fundraiser,” he said. “The event is for the benefit of veterans and children’s educational programs. The Worcester County Veterans Memorial Foundation’s efforts are to be praised and worthy of your continued support. It is my hope and prayer that you all continue to support their cause, despite my absence.”
Gilmore said another act, which she described as a “top-notch entertainer from Atlantic City,” would fill in for Pace.
Doors open at 4:30 p.m. and a buffet dinner will be served at 5:30 p.m. The show will start at 7 p.m.
Tickets are $70 and a cash bar will be provided.
Checks may be sent to WCVMF, PO Box 1576, Ocean Pines, MD 21811.
Tickets are limited and no tickets will be sold at the door. Single tickets are available, or tables of 10 can be purchased.
