Is there a track/trail/safe place to run in OC other than a gym? I know the streets aren't the best places to work on my mile time with trafic.
As Troy mentioned the boardwalk is a great place to run, northside park too is another great place to run in ocean city, md.

Can you bring a 10X10ft canopy to the beach instead of an umbrella?
Yes you can bring your canopy. Just follow the same rules as with an umbrella. You can not have it set up in the view of the lifeguard. Rule of thumb to make sure you have no issues is to set it up on the beach well behind the lifeguard stand.

Can you use a pop up canopy tent on the beach? Like you see at a child's ball game. for shade.
Yes you can, provided it does not block the life guards view. One note is to be sure it is staked well into the ground. There are windy days where you will see canopy tents flying across the beach. If it cannot be staked, I would not use it on the beach.

Hello
1. What is the main street in OC?
2. Who would you recommend that has Jet Ski rentals, and parasailing?
3.Are the any clubs for dancing?
The main street in the town of OC is Coastal Highway. At 33rd St Coastal Hwy becomes Philadalphia Ave heading south and running parallel Baltimore Avenue heading north.
For jet skis and parasailing check out OC Bayside rentals. Here is more info and coupons :http://www.ocbaysiderentals.com/
Dancing at Seacrets is great because they have at least two different bands or DJ's providing entertainment.

Are there alot of shops and or events in OC around November. My mom is coming in to Maryland around that time. And I have never been to O.C. Not sure what is like .
You will find approximately 60% of the stores, shops and restaurants open. Many restaurants have specials. Ocean City is still busy on the weekends and some boardwalk stores are open. Find a hotel with an ocean view and indoor pool, close your eyes and dream it is July! It is still a nice time to be in Ocean City.

My family used to visit Ocean City every summer, but, this year, we're looking to go in September. What's Ocean City like in September? Is much still open on the boardwalk? Thanks in advance for your help!
You will find all of Ocean City still open except for some of the outdoor rides and waterparks. Ocean City is in full swing until the end of Sun Fest.
