In Milton, the annual Bargains on the Broadkill serves as a kind of coda for the summer season, given its place on the calendar just before Labor Day and kids going back to school.
The annual event, held in Milton Memorial Park Aug. 24, featured local vendors and artisans, a kayak race and the rubber duck race on the Broadkill River.
