    There are a couple coaster credits in the northern Eastern Shore Del-Mar-Va area besides Ocean City MD. 

    In July I went to Hebron Fire Co, Hebron MD. Their coaster is unfortunately now not adult ride allowable. I'm not sure when this change occurred. There is at least one youtube video of a couple riding it from a few years back. But I did ride the world's newest Scrambler. 

    This past weekend, mid-august, I went back up to Sharptown Fire Co, Sharptown, MD. They have a wacky worm. As well as another scrambler and tilt-a-whirl. Adults can ride the wacky worm. 

    Must warn everyone though, They slammed their ticket window closed at 9pm sharp. I barely made it after driving all the way up from wilmington, nc. Shut down the kiddie rides shortly after. And ALL FOOD. Wacky worm was shut down at 10:15. Everything was closed by 10:45. It was ridiculous. Everything all started up only at 7PM, which is the ONLY time specified by the web site and facebook page. They say it is crowd dependent. WELL, when we arrived there was a huge crowd. THEY chased the crowd away. You'd think for a fundraiser for the fire co, which only runs 3 weekends or 3 weeks, they'd WANT to keep going for more funds! It was pretty shocking. Glad I got the coaster credit at least.

    Back in 2022, I was on a coaster trip down the eastern coast, and I purposely skipped some parks to stop by for the Hebron Fire Co Carnival. I will say it was an enjoyable experience. It was a small town coming together and having a good time. I asked one of the guys wearing a Hebron Fire Co. T-shirt if they sold them; he said he would get me one, and he did (I made a donation to them). It is one of my prize "park" T-shirts.👩‍🚒👕

    Coaster-Count shows riders for 2025, so they apparently made the change this year.
