BERLIN -- Junior Achievement (JA) of Worcester County will be hosting its annual Adopt-A-School Dinner on Tuesday, Oct. 9 at the Ocean City Marlin Club in West Ocean City.

The event includes a casual cocktail hour, sit-down dinner, recognition of honored guests and both live and silent auction items donated by various business owners all over Worcester County.
