Community Center Recognizes Contribution of Margaret 'Peggy' Lloyd

The Ocean City Community Center dedicated a new plaque on Sunday morning in recognition of a donation from Margaret "Peggy" Lloyd.

Lloyd, 99, asked that the amount of the donation not be released, but it is reported the largest ever received by the Ocean City Community Center Association. She asked that the contribution be dedicated to the pool at the Ocean City Aquatics and Fitness Center.

Lloyd has served on the board of directors for the Ocean City Pops, the Ocean City Arts Center and the Ocean City Aquatics and Fitness Center, and she has been a generous donor to each of the organizations.

Born in Atlantic City in 1913, Lloyd is a graduate of Atlantic City High School and the Trenton Teachers College (now The College of New Jersey). After moving to Ocean City, she became active in various community organizations in town.
