The Starboard held its Kids’ Running of the Bull event June 28, as the foggy weather didn’t deter a crowd of nearly 200 people from chasing the bull on Dagsworthy Avenue in Dewey Beach during the annual family-friendly celebration.
Donations from the event benefit the Rehoboth Beach Volunteer Fire Company.
The bull was defeated after the run by 2025 matador Olivia Spangler.
“It felt really good to win over the bull,” said Spangler. “I used a flying side kick that I learned in karate.”
