Town of Ocean City Seeking Dune Patrol Volunteers

Ocean City, Maryland – (April 21, 2023): The Town of Ocean City is looking for volunteers for the Ocean City Dune Patrol. These volunteers will be assigned specific dune areas to help keep the dune area clean of trash and debris, and inspect the integrity of the fences, crossovers and vegetation.

“They are our eyes on the front-line,” commented Ocean City Environmental Engineer, Jenelle Gerthoffer. “We are looking for a dedicated group of individuals who take the time to clean up the dune areas and keep them in a presentable condition so that all can enjoy the beach.”

This is very important to keep the dunes healthy and stabilized. The patrol volunteers perform clean-ups according to their own schedule and availability. Their volunteer efforts are a valuable asset to our community.

If you want to join the Dune Patrol or need more information, please call the Town of Ocean City’s Environmental Engineer, Jenelle Gerthoffer, at (410) 289-8825.
