OCEAN CITY, Md. – One family-owned business just celebrated 25 years in business.
The Park Place Jewelers opened their doors 25 years ago in 1996, and to celebrate that accomplishment, business leaders, elected officials, and community members all gathered for a ribbon cutting. Delegate Wayne Hartman posted on Facebook, congratulating the jeweler and said their success is well deserved.
A portion of all the sales during that event will be donated to Park Place’s favorite charities, including the Worcester County Education Foundation, Atlantic General Hospital, and Believe in Tomorrow.

BERLIN – A donation from the Worcester County Education Foundation provided the school system with funding for mobile hotspots.
Ray Thompson, chair of the Worcester County Education Foundation (WCEF) and Olivia Momme, WCEF’s manager of operations and community relations, presented the Worcester County Board of Education with a check for $45,000 last week.
