The 2024 Lifeguard Award Celebration will honor local lifeguard patrols along the Delaware coast. The event will recognize Lifeguard of the Year nominees and those representing Sussex County in the USLA Nationals.

The Rehoboth Beach Patrol is set to host the 2024 United States Lifesaving Association’s (USLA) Mid-Atlantic Regional Championships, welcoming lifeguard-athletes from across the Mid-Atlantic region. This year’s event will take place on Wednesday, July 10, at Towers Beach in Delaware Seashore State Park. This change of location is due to ongoing construction at the Rehoboth beach patrol headquarters on Baltimore Avenue.
