bedroom apartment to enjoy sum-
mers and holidays in Ocean City.
"I have been coming to Ocean
City, Md., since I was about 6
months old on vacation. I've always
loved the town and loved the beach
... we only went on a few other fam-
ily vacations besides Ocean City
and never had as much fun as
here," he said.
On Labor Day, the Stang family
would end the summer by all com-
ing together at the beach to hold a
mass where Kevin would join his
father and uncles in the family band
playing guitar.
"We all go down together on La-
bor Day as a big family and always
have a blast with a lot of games,"
Shelby said.
In 2010, the three older boys gra-
duated from high school and all de-
cided to come to Ocean City to all
try out for OCBP together. They all
surpassed expectations and finish-
ed in the top 20 finalists out of 50
who tried out.
"I joined the OCBP because I
wanted to live and work at the
beach, and this was the best option
to do both. I think I can speak for all
of us and say we love this job be-
cause of the satisfaction it brings
us," Colin said.
However, Kevin turned down the
first year working for the OCBP and
pursued swimming at University of
Maryland Baltimore County (UM-
BC), but he returned to the beach
patrol the next summer and has
been serving as an Ocean City life-
guard for the past two years.
Colin and Jack are in their third
year with the OCBP. All three serve
as Surf Rescue Technicians (SRT).
Their primary duties are making res-
cues, first aid, CPR, educating the
public on potential hazards and
maintaining overall safety on the
beach by enforcing ordinances.
After noticing how much fun the
boys were having serving on OCBP,
the girls, Shelby, Emily and Addie,
couldn't help but want to get in on
the action. This is their first year on
the OCBP, also serving as SRTs.
"I joined OCBP after hearing the
wonderful stories from the boys a-
bout their experience on OCBP,"
Addie said.
Emily didn't need much convinc-
ing since she has always wanted be
a lifeguard in Ocean City since a
young age.
"I really ended up joining after my
brother and two cousins joined.
They told me how great of a job it
really is," she said.
All six of the Stang cousins par-
ticipate in lifeguard competitions
near and far.
"Jack, Kevin and I attend all the
local ocean series competitions, but
next week we will be representing
Ocean City at the United States
Lifesaving Association (USLA) life-
guard nationals, being held in Man-
hattan Beach, Calif. We will com-
pete in swimming and running
events," Colin said.
Shelby, Emily and Addie just re-
turned from a competition in Sandy
... 6 Cousins Working For OCBP
Hook, N.J., on Wednesday where
the local patrol placed fifth.
Somehow the Stang cousins find
the time to participate in other activ-
ities throughout town. Colin recently
completed the nine-mile Swim OC
event to benefit Johns Hopkins Out-
patient Neuro Rehabilitation Pro-
gram.
Kevin is a member of the OCBP
Scuba Diving Team and also re-
cently took third place in BJ's on the
Water's canoe races. He also plays
floor hockey at Northside Park.
The Stang cousins all live on
36th Street next door to one anoth-
er, the girls in one house and the
guys in the other.
"Having the girls right next door is
really great and I'm glad I get to see
them so much. We are all extreme-
ly close and always have been our
entire lives. I feel like my cousins
are my brothers and sisters and
sometimes just refer to them as
such. It has been and always will be
this way," Kevin said.
Emily added their parents and
grandparents have always made a
point to keep the Stangs a close-knit
family and living together has only
made them closer.
"It works pretty well," Addie said
of living with her cousins. "We all get
to spend a lot of time together which
is always fun ... we have always
been close growing up, but living in
three different states we only saw
each other a couple times a year.
This summer we are able to spend
so much more time together which
has just brought us closer."
Colin is entering into his senior
year at the University of Maryland
where he studies economics.
"What I like most about Ocean
City are all the friends I have made
the past three summers, and all the
good memories I've made," he said.
"My future with the OCBP is unde-
termined. However, I plan to be here
for at least one more summer. I
have one year left of college and
plan to start the job search this
school year."
Kevin's future plans are to gradu-
ate from UMBC and intends to earn
an EMT degree. He has thought a-
bout heading to California where he
could lifeguard full-time or go to gra-
duate school in Baltimore and live
with Colin where he could coach
swimming.
"I plan to work with OCBP as long
as I can," he said. "There is always
something going on and I have
made some incredible friends on
beach patrol who I never would
have met without this city [Ocean
City]. Never a dull moment at the
beach."
Shelby is entering into her soph-
omore year at the University of
Rhode Island and plans on serving
on the OCPB until she figures out
her next step in her career.
Emily attends school and swims
at West Chester University in Penn-
sylvania where she studies nutri-
tion.
Addie's future plans are to attend
Elizabethtown College and major in
occupational therapy.
