Country Music Star To Serve As Grand Marshal For Hero Parade On Sept. 11

SELBYVILLE — Over 30 wounded soldiers and their families will be feted next week, symbolically on Sept. 11, with a parade in their honor and a concert by national recording artist Aaron Tippin at The Freeman Stage as part of a week-long retreat at the shore through Operation SEAS the Day.

Patriotism and giving thanks will be on full display at the Freeman Stage in Selbyville next Friday, Sept. 11 in the midst of Operation SEAS the Day, a week-long warrior beach retreat for 30 wounded veterans and their families. The Very Important Families (VIFs), as they are called, will start a well-deserved week of rest and relaxation in and around the Delaware and Maryland beaches.

The veterans and their families will stay at vacation homes and condos donated by local residents, including many in the Sea Colony in Bethany Beach. The week kicks off with a welcome reception next Tuesday and concludes with a farewell breakfast on Sept. 13. In between, the wounded veterans and their families will enjoy the beach, play golf, ride jet skis, go horseback riding, play mini golf and enjoy meals at some of the finest restaurants in the resort area, all made possible by Operation SEAS the Day.
