The Friends of the Ocean City Pops announced the top talents in the Tenth Annual Student Competition.
This year, all student musicians had to take personal videos of their performances and send those videos to the competition coordinator, Robert Snodgrass.
All the videos were turned into a single video for the judges, Bill Scheible, Angel Garland and Greg DiBona.
They watched the videos and then had a Zoom meeting where they selected the winners of the contest.
This year the Friends of the Pops are giving $5,600 in awards to these talented and hard-working students.
Here is a list of the awards given this year.
