Predicted showers and thunderstorms June 9 did not keep families away from the Rehoboth Beach-Dewey Beach Chamber of Commerce and USO Delaware’s annual Beach Goes Red, White and Blue.
At the Bandstand in Rehoboth, local police departments, state police and branches of the military set up shop for demonstrations throughout the morning.
