About The Event
Ocean City’s Westside
Breaking Barriers, Building Bridges
Book #2 in our series on Ocean City’s Westside is here. It contains five chapters in 350 pages chocked full of goodies covering the subjects about which I get the most questions: 1. Bringing Home the Bacon on making a living, 2. Birds of a Feather on housing, 3. The Elephant in the Room on racism, 4. Water, Water Everywhere about the beach and bay, and 5. Uncle Sam Wants Us on military service.
