Jolly Trolley: Enjoy a ride on Rehoboth Beach's favorite mode of transportation - the Jolly Trolley. Hop on for a 20-minute ride between 10 a.m. - 3 p.m. And if you time your ride right, you might even get to sit next to Lewie P. Bear.
Rehoboth Beach Library: Get out of the cold and entrenched in a book. Stop by to take a look at all the library has to offer and enjoy a fun activity. Library hours are 10 a.m. - 3 p.m. Saturday with special polar bear stories at 11:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. Located on Rehoboth Avenue between Second Street and Christian Avenue.
Ice Sculpting Contest: The Plunge weather the previous few years has been ideal for just hanging out on the boardwalk. Make sure your kids watch the talents of our ice sculptors as they shape a chunk of ice into a near real-life figurine.
Sculpting will begin at approximately 10 a.m. on Saturday morning on the Boardwalk in front of the Atlantic Sands Hotel, with judging taking place at approximately 2:00 p.m.
5k Run/Walk: The 5k Run to the Plunge is Saturday at 1 p.m. starting on the Rehoboth Beach Boardwalk. This 5k event is open to the most serious runners, casual joggers and those just wanting to go out for a Saturday stroll for a great cause.
It's the perfect way to spend the early afternoon as a family and work off those extra calories you'll then eat up during the chili contest.
