Imagine fantastic weather, wide beaches, a Boardwalk filled with amusements, shopping, dining and entertainment for the whole family.

Well, stop imagining. It’s all offered in Ocean City.

And to let visitors know how much they are appreciated, Playland’s Castaway Cove and Jilly’s Stores on the Ocean City Boardwalk have partnered with MediaWize and its websites, OCNJDaily.com, SeaIsleNews.com, SomersPoint.com and Downbeach.com, to offer a flurry of prizes in a contest that is sure to create some friendly competition among tourists.

The Sand, Sun & Family Fun contest consists of $1,000 in Playland’s Castaway Cove tickets, including amusement rides, go-karts and miniature golf, and a host of prizes from Jilly’s shops, including fun cards to play at the Jilly’s Arcade.

Fun Cards for Jilly’s Arcade are among the prizes.

Brian Hartley, vice president of Playland’s Castaway Cove, said Playland’s is happy to partner with Jilly’s and MediaWize to offer the contest.

“The weather has been spectacular and people are coming to Ocean City. It’s been busy,” Hartley noted. “We are excited to offer people who enter the contest a chance to come on down and get some free stuff on us.”

Hartley added that it is particularly important this summer to showcase what the resort has to offer and also provide a vacation getaway for visitors after a tough year and a half dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Maybe you didn’t have a good year last year, you got sick or lost a loved one or were laid off,” Hartley said. “Come down and have a good time and relax.”

Jilly’s prizes include a whole package of goodies.

The contest winner will receive candy from Jilly’s Candy Factory.

It includes the popular two-hour fun cards to Jilly’s Arcades ($60 value) and a $25 gift card to any Jilly’s store. Also included is one set of Jilly’s refill cups and one box of Jilly’s salt water taffy and other sweets ($100 value).

“We love contests and it’s always great to see who the winner is and watch them get to enjoy it,” said Jody Levchuk, an Ocean City councilman and co-owner of the Jilly’s stores. “Being a part of the contest is even better.  I wish everyone who is taking part in the contest the best of luck.”

MediaWize joined with the Playland’s Castaway Cove and the Jilly’s shops as a way to help entice people to get away and have a good time as the pandemic eases.
