Revitilization on Broad Creek in Sussex County, Delaware
Playground elements evoke the storytelling heritage of the Nanticoke Indian Tribe at Tidewater Park in Laurel, Del., on May 1, 2025. Nanticoke Indian Tribe members provided input on the design of the park, a project led by Delaware Sea Grant resulting in the park's ribbon cutting in 2024. “The Nanticoke Nation takes great pride in Tidewater Park featuring Indigenous legends highlighting the origins of the First People of the First State. Wanishii (Thank you) to the Town of Laurel, Delaware Sea Grant of the University of Delaware, and RagghiRain for their dedication and contributions to creating this project," said Avery Johnson, Chief of the Nanticoke Tribe. "Tidewater Park is a testament to the true first Americans and honors the history of Indigenous peoples in Southern Delaware.” (Photo by Will Parson/Chesapeake Bay Program)
