At The Beach – Ocean City Maryland

The first day of fall fell on Monday, September 22, 2008 this year and in Ocean City Md the international students were departing throughout the month. This really signals the end of the summer season and for the international student workers a return to their homeland and school. The students here wait for the bus in Ocean City Md at 6:00 AM in the morning to take them to JFK airport in New York City.
I am sure there were many tears from the students as many of them had a great adventure in our city, and some will want to return. Yes .. they mostly worked 2 jobs every day. they started their first job maybe at 7 Am .. finished it at 4 PM and started a 2nd evening job at 5 PM until midnight or beyond often.

They also hopefully were able to use some of their earnings to visit the Nation’s capital in Washington DC., get in a side trip to New York City and for some even more adventure to Niagara Falls NY and Las Vegas before returning to their homeland.

From my perspective on the summer .. we saw fewer students from Eastern Europe .. probably fewer from other countries as well! .. it was just as well, as the economy was sagging and tourism visitors were fewer .. therefore employers in Ocean City Md and the Delaware Coastal Resorts needed fewer employees during the summer season of 2008. Also, the US Dollar doesn’t exchange as well now therefore E European students earn less than in previous years, and students can opt for summer jobs in other E European countries where they earn as much or more. Let’s hope that 2009 offers a recovering economy and an upward trend in tourism to coastal Maryland and Delaware. Certainly the area offers a great Summer Work Experience for Foreign Student Workers. It’s proximity to Washington DC, Baltimore and New York City provide most the opportunity to do some great sight seeing during their summer months At The Beach in Ocean City MD or the Delaware Coast.
