On Monday, the community will put on the 29th annual Bethany Beach Jazz Funeral, laying to rest the summer season for the year with a quirky farewell.
Three bands provide musical accompaniment for a procession at the beach featuring a casket with a mannequin representing summer.
The family-friendly event encourages attendees to dress up as mourners or in other New Orleans-style costuming.
The procession begins at 5:30 p.m. ET Monday at the north end of the Bethany Beach Boardwalk. The event also coincided with a silent auction held Friday to benefit five local charities.
