1 folder (0.1 linear feet)

In 1993, former Salisbury University student Marc Dickerson collected folk material. His project describes the communities and the leisure activities that people indulged into in Seaford, Delaware. For instance, the gyms were the favorite place to watch Basketball games together during the Winter. In the Fall, people gathered at the football fields and hanging out at the ballpark was more of a Spring activity. The paper also mentions the different activities in town and what to avoid when going "uptown" where the community was very wary of outsiders.
