Thu, 08/17/2023 - 11:02

Two Republican Party fund-raisers will happen on the South Fork this week.

Tonight from 6 to 8, Manny Vilar, chairman of the East Hampton Town Republican Committee and candidate for the Suffolk County Legislature’s Second District, will host a celebration honoring Representative Nick LaLota of New York’s First Congressional District at the Clubhouse in Wainscott. Tickets are $150 per person, or $125 for first responders and members of any Republican or Conservative Party committee. Sponsorships are also available. Checks payable to E.H.T.R.C. can be sent to P.O. Box 22, Wainscott 11975.

A fund-raiser for Mr. Vilar’s campaign will be held on Wednesday from 6 to 8 p.m. at Captain Jack’s on the Coast in North Sea, the former Coast Grill. Ed Romaine, the Republican candidate for Suffolk County executive, will be a guest. The ticket prices are the same as listed above, and checks payable to the Committee to Elect Manny Vilar can be sent to the same address.

Self Provisions, a storefront attached to Cavaniola’s Gourmet Cheese in Sag Harbor, is “always open,” as is proclaimed by an illuminated sign on the wall at the entrance. Two large, brightly lit vending machines dominate the space, with offerings ranging from sea salt crackers and slabs of French butter to jars of caviar and curated gift boxes — and, of course, cheese.
