Dames at the Beach - March 31-April 2!

 
DAMES AT THE BEACH!

Friday, March 31 - Sunday, April 2, 2023

Join us in Rehoboth Beach for a fun-filled weekend with our sister Dames as we explore one of the new regions in our expanded DC Chapter region. Delmarva, Charlottesville & West Virginia are now a part of our chapter, and we hope this will be the first of several group trips outside of the immediate DC area. The Development team is using this trip to create a template for exploring, recruiting and fundraising in these regions.

Rehoboth Beach is known as the getaway of choice for summer beach-goers from the Washington, DC area. It’s now become a year-round vacation destination and where women in the thriving hospitality industry there would make fantastic additions to our chapter!
The weekend agenda is below. Tickets for each event should be purchased quickly as spaces are limited.

Rehoboth Beach is about a 2.5 hour drive from the DC area without traffic.
Lodging is up to you, but we recommend Vrbo and Airbnb. We’ll be staying in the off-season so rooms should be affordable and available.  For questions, please contact Ellen Kassoff at equinoxrestaurant@gmail.com
