Valley Vineyards in September.
This family-oriented fundrais-
ing event was cosponsored by the
Center for the Inland Bays an the
Kiwanis Foundation of Rehoboth
Beach. In addition to a variety of
folk music performers, the festival
also featured folk art and crafts,
clowns and an environmental dis-
play area, as well as food a drink.
Steve Forbert, considered to be
one of America's finest songwrit-
ers, headlined the event. Fresh off
the January release of his ninth
studio album, Evergreen Boy,
Forbert played a number of old
and new releases as the audience
clapped in time and interacted
with the performer. Forbert's
thrilled the crowd with spirited
performances.
Musicians includede Bqt
ris with Tom Maher, Do
Mountain Band, Greg Shrader, the
One Time Band, Rich & Doc and
Crabmeat Thompson. One of the
afternoon's highlights found Peg-
gy Raley, the event host and own-
er of Nassau Valley Vineyards, on
stage with Crabmeat Thompson
for a lively blues rendition of
"Stormy Monday."
The funds generated by the Re-
hoboth Folk Music Festival will

ed activities of both the Center for
the Inland Bays and the Rehoboth
Kiwanis Club.

Charlie Brown named Volunteer of the Quarter at James Farm
Charles "Charlie" Brown is the
newest addition to the growing
list of volunteers who are helping
with the day-to-day maintenance
at the James Farm Ecological Pre-
serve.
Brown retired to Milton,
Delaware, after working for 38
years as a Senior Computer Spe-
cialist in the Silver Spring, Mary-
land area.
Charlie and his wife Nancy also
volunteer at Trap Pond State Park.
Jim Alderman, Restoration Coor:
dinator for the Center for the In-.
land Bays, recently asked Charlie
if he was interested in doing any
computer work for the Center.
The look Jim received in response
was enough to change the subject.
Brown is ready to work outside in
the fresh air.
Charlie's involvement with tile
Center resulted from an article in
the RSVP (Retired Senior Volun-
teer Program) newsletter about
the James Farm Ecological Pre-
serve.
Brown became interested in the
many volunteer opportunities that
were described. After contacting
Elly Shackle, RSVP Volunteer
Services Coordinator, Charlie met
with Keri Maull and Jim Alder-.
man at the James Farm property.
It was a match that was meant to
be. Charlie liked the James Farm
and Maull, and Alderman liked
Charlie.
Brown's duties at the James
Farm Ecological preserve include
mowing, weed whacking, trail
maintenance, and a variety of oth-
er tasks.
In addition to volunteering at
the James Farm and Trap Pond,
Blown has been active with the
Lions Club for 27 years. Present-
ly, he and wife Nancy are mem-
bers of the Milton Lions Club.
Thanks for all your help Charlie
Brown.
