This foursome represented two regional companies that know this side of the Shore well.

Jordan, Chris, Eugene and Spencer represented Critical Peake Electrical Services and All States Construction as a Silver Sponsor at this year’s Art Davis Memorial Golf Tournament.

Critical Peake provides electrical services throughout the Mid-Atlantic, while All States Construction brings another piece of the building industry to the team.

We were glad to have the crew make the trip to Ocean City and spend the day supporting OCDC.

Thanks, guys, for being part of it.

From mortgages to mulligans. ⛳️

Direct Mortgage Loans traded the office for the golf course and joined us as a Silver Sponsor of this year’s Art Davis Memorial Golf Tournament.

They spend their days helping people finance homes across our area, so they’re already pretty connected to the people and places that make up this community.

Thanks to the Direct Mortgage Loans crew for showing up, supporting OCDC and making a day of it with us.

Some Downtown Ocean City spots just become part of your memory. Cork Bar is one of them.

Different generations, same family, same bar, same downtown roots.

Billy, Steve, Mike and Mason hit the course for this year’s Art Davis Memorial Golf Tournament, with Cork Bar joining us as a Silver Sponsor.

For a business that’s been woven into downtown for generations, it felt pretty fitting to see the Cork Bar crew out there supporting OCDC and the place they’ve long called home.

Thanks for bringing a little OC history to the course. ⛳️

A lot has to happen between “we’ll take it” and “here are the keys.”

Bright Title Services is part of that process, handling title and settlement work for real estate transactions throughout our area.

They also stepped up as a Silver Sponsor of this year’s Art Davis Memorial Golf Tournament, and we’re glad to have another business connected to Ocean City real estate behind the event.

Thank you, Bright Title Services, for being part of this year’s tournament. ⛳️

You don’t think much about the electrical work behind Ocean City until you need it.

Frick Electric has spent years doing the kind of work that keeps homes, businesses and projects moving across our area.

This year, they also stepped onto the course with us as a Silver Sponsor of the Art Davis Memorial Golf Tournament.

A big thank you to Frick Electric for being part of the day and part of the local business community behind OCDC.

A downtown bank backing a downtown organization. That connection matters.

Burke & Herbert Bank joined this year’s Art Davis Memorial Golf Tournament as a Silver Sponsor, adding their name to a long list of local businesses and organizations that helped make the day happen.

With a branch right here in Downtown Ocean City, they’re part of the same neighborhood OCDC works in every day.

Thank you, Burke & Herbert Bank, for being part of this year’s tournament.

Art Davis wasn’t just the namesake of OCDC’s annual golf tournament. He was also a longtime president of Bank of Ocean City and one of OCDC’s founding members.

That makes the bank’s support of this tournament especially meaningful.

Bank of Ocean City joined us as both a Silver Sponsor and Lunch Sponsor, helping carry forward an event that honors Art’s legacy and supports the downtown work he helped begin.

Thank you to the Bank of Ocean City team for being part of that story.

If you’ve eaten at a restaurant in Ocean City, there’s a good chance Sysco helped get something into that kitchen.

Sysco Eastern Shore supports restaurants and hospitality businesses throughout the region, so their connection to Ocean City runs deeper than just one day on the golf course.

We’re grateful to have had them as a Gold Sponsor of this year’s Art Davis Memorial Golf Tournament and appreciate their support of OCDC and the local business community.

Thank you, Sysco Eastern Shore.

What can Ocean City learn from a city on the other side of Maryland? Quite a bit, actually.

OCDC spent three days in Hagerstown this week at the 2026 Maryland Main Street Conference, connecting with people who share our passion for making downtown communities better places to live, work, and visit.

Between the workshops, conversations, and tours of nearby Main Streets, we got to see some pretty cool things happening across Maryland.

Hagerstown’s murals and public art were especially impressive!

Every downtown has its own personality, including ours here in Ocean City. That’s what makes getting together, sharing ideas, and learning from each other so valuable.

A big thanks to Maryland DHCD, Maryland Main Street, and our hosts in Hagerstown for a great conference!

Looking forward to Fells Point in 2027!
