The Surf Safety Line was a project funded by the women of the Village Improvement Association (VIA) to assist bathers while they were in the ocean at Rehoboth Beach.

Surf safety lines were ropes that were anchored along the shore and attached to floating buoys in the ocean to assist bathers to pull themselves along the line to go out, and then return safely to the shore.

The following distinguished guests will be in attendance:

The Honorable Peter C. Schwarzkopf, Speaker, Delaware House of Representatives & Historical Marker Sponsor

The Honorable Ernesto “Ernie” B. López, Delaware Senate & Historical Marker Sponsor

The Honorable Stan Mills, Mayor, City of Rehoboth Beach

Ann Sebastian, President, Village Improvement Association

Carole Suchanek, Past-President, Village Improvement Association
