Tonight's open house at the Ocean City Fishing Club pier is postponed to August 15, due to forecasts of rain and possible thunderstorms. The public will be able to tour the pier next Thursday from 6 to 8 p.m. The OCFC encourages visitors to bring non-perishable foods or make a cash donation to benefit the Ocean City Food Cupboard.

More than 1,000 people at the first open house on August 1, brought 220 pounds of non-perishable food and donated $895 to help feed the needy. The OCFC has been holding open houses on the pier to benefit the local food agency since its centennial celebration in 2013.

The OCFC, a private fishing club, has a strong commitment to community involvement through programs that include its open houses, the youth fishing tournament, awarding scholarships and advocating for recreational fishing. Founded in 1913, it is the oldest, continually operating fishing club in the United States.
