Day of Service

Midway members needed to form a clean-up team in honor of the 3rd Annual City of Lewes Community Service Day. Our team will focus on the Children’s Beach House with the Urban Forestry Department, picking up debris, planting, and trimming trees. 50+ volunteers are needed! Please sign up at the Midway front desk by Thursday, October 1st at 12pm.

About the Children’s Beach House: Lydia Chichester du Pont founded Children’s Beach House in 1936 to provide a safe, supportive, and healing environment for under-resourced children with disabilities.

Cancer Awareness Week — Stand Together, Wear Purple

Every one of us has been touched by cancer in some way, whether through our own journey or that of a family member, friend, colleague, or neighbor. This week, our Midway community is coming together in solidarity, remembrance, and hope. We invite everyone to join us by wearing purple throughout the week to honor those fighting, celebrate survivors, and remember loved ones we have lost. If you don’t have purple to wear, stop by the front desk to pick up a ribbon to wear proudly. You will also find paper purple ribbons available at the desk where you can write the name of a loved one or share a message of support to add to our community memorial wall. Every ribbon tells a story, and every voice matters. Let’s fill Midway with purple this week and show our community that no one fights alone.

Midway Film & Book Club

Join the Midway Book Club this October for a lively discussion of Pope Joan by Donna Woolfolk Cross—a captivating historical novel about one woman’s extraordinary rise in a world determined to silence her. Come share your thoughts, hear new perspectives, and enjoy an engaging evening with fellow readers.
