TGIF, What’s Going On? The Quiet Resorts, Bethany Beach, Fenwick Island, Delaware Beaches, Southern Delaware, Sussex County
The beach is a source of inspiration for many…for others; just a place to kick back and relax.
Slowly, our Delaware Beaches are waking up after a much deserved rest the past couple of months….the Quiet Resorts, as Bethany Beach and Fenwick Island are known are holding some really neat events….So, What’s Going On?
Friday, 3/22 and Saturday, 3/23 – Dickens Parlour Theatre is located at 35715 Atlantic Avenue, west of Bethany Beach, Delaware. I have not had the opportunity to attend one of the shows, but I have heard that they are excellent and very popular. Visit http://www.dptmagic.com, or call 302-829-1071 for more info. The evening shows start at 7 p.m. Rainy days show at 2 p.m. And, I look forward to your comments…liked it?
Saturday, 3/23 – More volunteers are needed for Beach Grass Planting at South Bethany and Delaware Seashore State Park. 9:00 a.m. until Noon.

First of all, online registration is closed, so please to register call Shoreline and Waterway Management Section at 302-739-9921. Or, email jennifer.luoma@state.de.us. Beach grass helps to build and stabilize dunes by trapping windblown sand. Sand dunes are essential for protection against damaging coastal storms. The planting of beach grass is an annual event. It was first started in 1989; more than a million stems of beach grass have been planted by dedicated volunteers.
