About the OC bloggers

Michelle Deal-Zimmerman is travel editor at The Baltimore Sun. She's a native of South Florida, which she still contends has the best beaches even if there are no boardwalks. Michelle enjoys Ocean City the most in the fall, when she doesn't have to fight the crowds and the water is still warm.

Rachael Pacella is a native of Ocean City and also a journalism student at the University of Maryland. She has worked many summer jobs in O.C., including as a lifeguard, and knows all of the local secrets, some of which she may be convinced to share with you.

Brooks Welsh is a journalism student at the University of Maryland. He has also worked for Inside Lacrosse Magazine. Brooks has spent many summers in Ocean City and enjoys skateboarding and surfing. He can't wait to welcome back the Dew Tour to OC this summer.
