DIVE INTO FIRST STATE HERITAGE WITH CAN’T-MISS EVENTS
BY MADDY LAURIA
Although summer usually has been among the most popular times to visit Delaware, primarily for its beautiful beaches, events can be found statewide year-round. From Christmas-themed museums, historic sites and coastal festivals to Fourth
