CHEER's Donna Smith-Moore discuss plans for Beach Day '97
in Rehoboth.
Lewes among the 'prettiest places' in America
The first-ever search to find the nation's most attractive painted
places - launched earlier this year by the Rohm and Haas Paint Quality
Institute (PQI) in conjunction with "Better Homes and Gardens" and
"Architecture" magazines - has produced one nomination from
Delaware - Lewes.
Nationwide, nearly 300 communities have been nominated including
at least one from all 50 states. Included are high-profile tourist destina-
tions including Sante Fe, NM; Miami Beach, FL; and New Orleans, LA,
as well as some lesser known sites such as Deadwood, SD, and Sleepy
Hollow, NY.
The Delaware nominee will vie for regional and national honors this
summer as judges review the entries and make personal visits to the
sites. The 12 "Prettiest Painted Places in America" will be revealed in
September.
Delmarva Power announced it
will again sponsor the Governor's
Walk at the 1997 Beach Day Cel-
ebration on Friday, September 19
in Rehoboth Beach.
Each year for nearly a decade,
the company has sponsored walk-
ers and provided other support to
Beach Day.
"Delmarva Power appreciates
the opportunity to serve the needs
of the communities through the
Beach Day program," said Lee
Perkins, Delmarva Power
spokesman. "
As a partner with various senior
agencies and organizations, Del-
marva Power can connect with se-
niors and make a difference in
their quality of life."
Sponsor of Beach Day is
DHSS's Division of Services for
Aging and Adults with Physical
Disabilities, in partnership with
Sussex County Senior Services,
Inc. (CHEER).
The event is held annually to
help raise funds for Meals on
Wheels of Delaware, Inc.
Beach Day activities last year
raised more than $5,600 for Meals
on Wheels of Delaware, Inc.
The money helps provide more
than 3,500 meals delivered daily
to seniors in Sussex County and
throughout the state.
Other events planned for Beach
Day include a health fair, art ex-
hibit, bingo, bandstand entertain-
ment and craft sale.
Beach Day draws thousands of
visitors to Rehoboth Beach each
year.

ing Beach Day walkers is invited
