FYI, the Town of Ocean city cancelled the July 4th fireworks show at Northside Park this year.  You do NOT need to display your Island parking pass that day.

However, please save your Island parking passes in case the event is rescheduled at a later date. We do not plan to re-issue them. 

Updated Health Dept. guidance and revised state and local ordinances now allow us to OPEN the Island pools effective 10am on May 30th.  There are still capacity limits in place (34 people max at the North pool and 32 people max at the South pool) and additional other rules must be followed.  These include:

1. Bathers must sign in and out of the pool using the sign-in books located at the gates.
2. Bathers must socially distance to the recommended 6 foot rule with anyone outside their family.
3. Bathers must be familiar with all the new posted signage displayed and remain in compliance at all time.

Also per the Health Dept. guidance, extra precautions will be taken by our pool operators staff to include additional sanitation measures to the pool gates, hand rails, swim ladders, swim rails and pool furniture.

Please advise any guests or renters of these new regulations. It is paramount to the success and longevity of the pool season that we remain in compliance with these rules at all times.

Worcester County has provided interim guidance instructions on how to re-open the pools.  The restrictions are very limiting.  The most severe restriction limits the number of people at one time to 10 or less. The County would also require the pool areas be cleaned multiple times daily. After thorough consideration, the Board has decided not to open the pool this weekend.

We will continue to monitor the restrictions and guidance from the State and local Health Dept. authorities to determine when and how to safely open for the season.

While we certainly hope the Covid-19 pandemic gathering concerns will be over by June, the decision has been made not to organize an Island Clean-Up day this year.
