Ocean City encourages families to have fun while social distancing on the island. New for 2020, the Ocean City Regional Chamber of Commerce has developed an Ocean City Scavenger Hunt to encourage people to explore the island and discover new places, all while maintaining a safe social distance from others and wearing a mask.
“This new fun family oriented scavenger hunt will have people racing to solve the clue and post on social media to win fun Ocean City, N.J., prizes,” says Michele Gillian, executive director of the Chamber. “We are making it as contactless as possible.”
Each week, a new clue will be posted on Facebook and Instagram. Participants need to like, share, and comment on the post, decipher the clue, go to the location in the clue, take their picture at the location wearing a mask or face covering, post the picture on the Chamber’s Facebook or Instagram page, using the hashtag #showusyourmaskocnj.
Winners will be chosen from the entries that follow the rules and will be awarded with fun OCNJ swag.
The scavenger hunt will run through Labor Day.
The Downtown Merchants Association, Boardwalk Merchants Association and Back Bay businesses are all working with the Chamber to ensure island-wide participation.
Ocean City Regional Chamber of Commerce’s official pages are www.Facebook.com/OceanCityNJVacation and www.Instagram.com/oceancityvacation.
Join the family fun in “America’s Greatest Family Resort” and remember to show us your mask!

Clue for Week 1:
If you want to make it Personal
And find the perfect treasure
Head Downtown to Asbury
To help you is their pleasure
A puzzle piece or cutting board
A picture frame or plaque
Customize it with what you want
Making it perfect is their knack.
