The Best of the Best in Delaware

By Charlie Waltjen, in All Communities

Who doesn’t want the BEST? I know I sure do! Producing the best of anything means you need to pass a rigorous test; offering a good or service of true quality at a cost that makes it equally desirable. It’s a formula that all too often gets messed up. Luckily for us, stumbling upon the best […]

Beach living carries many perks along with it – there’s the laid back lifestyle, the access to our beautiful beaches and bays, the fresh, local cuisine – but what we really love on these HOT summer days are the local cocktails that go hand-and-hand with beach living.

Introducing the Local’s Corner

By Adam Pettengell, in All Communities

Before I came to the beach the word ‘local’ didn’t mean too much to me.  It held no value to me, my family,  or more importantly, the community. Here, in Southern Delaware, the growth and well-being of the community is shared with everyone.  Local businesses are at the very core of our beach life, and  I strive to be […]
