Worcester Preparatory School Celebrates Successful Tropical Resort Gala

Berlin, MD – Worcester Preparatory School hosted its Annual Gala on March 7, 2026, at The Ashore Resort & Beach Club in Ocean City, Maryland, welcoming parents, alumni, faculty, and community supporters for a Tropical Resort–themed evening. The fundraiser was a success and will support student-centered projects that enhance the Worcester Prep experience.
 
The program was hosted by MC duo Julia Ternahan and Abby Harrison of WPS 2nd Grade, who kept the energy high throughout the night. Guests embraced the tropical atmosphere as they gathered for an evening of fun and spirited bidding during the live auction. From a fishing trip aboard The Billfisher to Head of School for the Day, paddles were raised in support of WPS. Guests also enjoyed having their photo taken by Telescope Pictures and leaving with a custom WPS Gala Scopes keychain. The evening ended on a sweet note with Pineapple Dole Whip from Bonkey’s Ice Cream.
 
The gala brought together the Worcester Prep community and local supporters for a night of celebration and philanthropy, highlighting the generosity that continues to strengthen the school’s mission.
 
Worcester Preparatory School extends sincere thanks to the many sponsors, auction donors, and volunteers who contributed to the success of the event.
