OCEAN SHORES EVENTS   July 4th at the Beach     July 4, 2014 ~ Independence Day fell on a Friday this year, so this brought even more people out to the Beach. It was packed!

OCEAN SHORES EVENTS   Five Star Dealerships Sand & Sawdust Festival 2014     June 27th-29th ~ The annual Five Star Dealerships Sand & Sawdust Festival was held over the weekend.

But we still were able to see some of the works of sand art. Wood carvers were doing a great job at the Convention Center.  There were lots of vendors too.
