Ocean City, MD – Join Coastal Hospice for an unforgettable evening on the shores of the Assawoman Bay, complete with breathtaking sunset views, an open bar, savory heavy hors d’oeuvres, and the soulful blues stylings of Margot & Co. Our annual Blues on the Bay will be held Wednesday, September 24, 2025, from 6–9 p.m. at Macky’s Bayside Bar and Grill on 54th Street in Ocean City.
Sponsored by Macky and Pam Stansell and hosted by Highwater Management, this cherished Ocean City tradition marks the close of the season with friends, family, and community spirit. Proceeds benefit the Macky and Pam Stansell House at Coastal Hospice in Ocean Pines.
Event creators and benefactors Macky and Pam Stansell look forward to Blues on the Bay every year. Inspired by the exceptional care Pam’s mother received at Coastal Hospice at the Lake, the Ocean City couple quickly became devoted champions of the organization. Coastal Hospice Donor Relations Team Lead, Kerrie Bunting, shares, “We are eternally grateful to the Stansells, not only for their financial contributions toward our mission, but also for their advocacy of that mission. Blues on the Bay has become a celebration of their commitment to and gratitude for our work, and we are honored to call them friends.”
The Macky & Pam Stansell House is committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and compassionate place for hospice patients who cannot safely manage their care at home. Located on the Isle of Wight Bay in Ocean Pines, Maryland, our inpatient facility provides the dignity of hospice care with the comforts of home.
