At their August 21st meeting, the Rehoboth Beach commissioners approved a resolution recognizing the significance of the women’s suffragist movement. The resolution celebrates the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution granting women the right to vote. 

The League of Women Voters of Sussex County was one of the local and regional organizations the City supports in their desire to celebrate the 100th anniversary of women winning the right to vote.  The resolution also states that the Suffrage Victory Flag will fly at City Hall from August 26 to September 9th in honor of the centennial.
