Winners Announced For Night in Venice

There were 131 boats and 175 homes decorated for Ocean City’s Night in Venice parade on Saturday.

Many were adorned following this year’s theme of “It’s a Philly Thing,” while others did their own thing.

Either way, there were plenty to check out along the bayfront.

Awards can be picked up at City Hall, located at 861 Asbury Ave.
