George and Suzanne Hurley Memorial Scholarship

This scholarship was established in memory of two people who were the heart and soul of the Ocean City Life-Saving Station Museum from its beginning. Their dedication to documenting the history of Ocean City and preserving the 1891 U.S. Life-Saving Station spanned almost 40 years.

$2,000 is awarded to a graduating senior of Stephen Decatur High School, Worcester Preparatory School, Pocomoke High School, and Snow Hill High School who plans to further his/her education in the fall at a 4-year accredited college or university in the state of Maryland. Applicants can choose from three essay topics. Each topic not only spotlights historical places, events, and people of Worcester County, it also honors two of the founders of the Ocean City Life- Saving Station Museum.
