The 78th Annual Ocean City Halloween Parade was one for the books! We had absolutely beautiful weather and an UNBELIEVABLE turnout! 👻

The parade stepped off right on time at 7:15 PM and kept the Halloween excitement going until approximately 8:40 PM! From creative costumes and incredible floats to marching bands, festive decorations, and our adorable Animal Division, Asbury Avenue was filled with Halloween spirit from beginning to end.

A HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who participated, everyone who came out to watch, and all of our amazing sponsors who helped make this beloved Ocean City tradition possible.

And to our volunteers, parade committee, judges, and everyone working behind the scenes—you made it happen!

We are already looking forward to next year!

Another great night with the Exchange Club of Ocean City!
We celebrated five October birthdays and welcomed our October Student of the Month.

Our club historian, John LaRosa, led a fascinating discussion about a missing piece of Exchange Club history: our original 1948 Exchange Club banner! After 35–40 years of wondering what happened to it, we’re reminded how much history and tradition our club carries with it.

We welcomed Jessica York from the Bayshore Center at Bivalve, New Jersey’s only environmental history museum. The center preserves our area’s rich maritime history and is home to the historic 1928 oyster schooner A.J. Meerwald.

The schooner needs a new keel, with $100,000 still to raise. Preserving this vessel helps keep an important piece of South Jersey’s history alive for future generations.

Kevin Kelleher shared an update on our John Lugo Memorial Scholarship W**e Dinner. Thanks to everyone’s generosity, we raised $2,500 for the scholarship—exceeding our fundraising goal! Thank you to everyone who helped make the evening such a success!

Coming Up This Week!

Wednesday, October 28: Ocean City Chamber of Commerce Welcome Night, 6:00–7:30 PM at the Sports & Civic Center. Stop by and say hello!
Thursday, October 29: The 78th Annual Ocean City Halloween Parade!

🇺🇸 Their Service Takes Them Far From Home. Their Sacrifice Is Never Forgotten.

Today, on National Day of the Deployed, the National Exchange Club honors the brave men and women of our Armed Forces who have answered the call to serve our country, often thousands of miles from the people they love.

But behind every deployment is another story. The spouses holding families together. The children counting down the days. The parents waiting for that next phone call.

Their sacrifices matter, too.

To every service member who has deployed, those currently serving far from home, and the families standing beside them, we thank you.

❤️🤍💙 Your courage, commitment, and sacrifice will never be forgotten.

Join us in thanking our deployed military members and their families today.

What a special night at our John Lugo Memorial Scholarship W**e Dinner!
From delicious food and wonderful American w**es to great conversation and friendship, it was an evening to remember—all in support of scholarships for deserving students pursuing careers in law enforcement.

A heartfelt THANK YOU to David from Passion Vines for sharing his expertise and helping make the w**e selection so special, Atlantic Cape Community College and Carême’s for hosting us, and everyone who came out to support this meaningful event!

Your generosity helps us continue John Lugo’s legacy while investing in the next generation. We’re so grateful to everyone who made the evening a success! 💙💙💙💙💙
