Wilgus Associates, a trusted partner for your vacation rental needs, is celebrating a milestone anniversary. Between our celebrations and the Bethany Beach 4th of July parade, there’s no shortage of things to do on an Independence Day getaway. Keep reading to learn more about these upcoming events and everything you need to know.
What to Know About the Parade
The parade takes place on July 4. It travels along Pennsylvania Avenue South to Cedarwood Street East. From there, it will proceed along Atlantic Avenue North to Ocean View Parkway West, then back to Pennsylvania Avenue South, and ultimately to Central Boulevard.
The Bethany Beach parade is a quintessential 4th of July parade. Not only will there be floats designed to match this year’s themes, but there will also be marching bands, bikers, and walkers. If you’re interested in participating, pre-register online or sign up on the day of the parade at the float registration tent on Central Boulevard.
One float you can look forward to seeing is ours! Get a prime viewing spot to see the Wilgus Associates float, complete with a live band playing classic beach oldies, as it works its way along the route. We’ll also be handing out patriotic giveaways and representing what makes Wilgus Associates – and our community – so special. Look for us at the parade and enjoy the festive spirit that makes summer in Bethany Beach unforgettable!
