Rehoboth Beach Delaware 19971United States
Waynne Paskins has lived in Rehoboth Beach long enough to remember a time before West Rehoboth was called West Rehoboth.
When she was growing up, it was never called West Rehoboth, said Paskins. It was just a thriving community where a lot of the local Black families lived, she said.
Paskins recently participated in a Rehoboth Beach Museum program called In Their Own Words. She recounted her childhood experiences growing up in Rehoboth and her professional career as a teacher at Rehoboth Elementary School. The online presentation took place Feb. 18, and more than 70 people listened.
