(TOMS RIVER, NJ) -- Ocean County College welcomes back a summer tradition with an outdoor concert performed by the New Jersey Symphony on Tuesday, June 27 at 8:00pm on OCC’s main campus in Toms River.

Malagiere, executive director of the OCC Foundation. “On behalf of our Board Chair, David Paulus, and entire Foundation Board, we thank you – one and all – for your continued support of our Foundation and Ocean County College.”
