OCEAN CITY, Md.- Ocean City Beach Patrol is reminding beach goers that as the summer days are dwindling, so are the beach patrol staff numbers.
The number of lifeguards working day-to-day will start to decrease in the coming weeks, due to the large number of college students and teachers on the staff.
While there will be no unguarded areas of the beach, the number of available lifeguard towers will change the location and distance between the stands.
Weekday schedules will change, however OCBP will be able to increase coverage of lifeguards and mobile rescue unites on the weekends.
OCBP is warning beach goers to take extra precautions and try to stay within a short distance of a lifeguard.
