The third annual Hamptons Pride Parade happens on Saturday in East Hampton. Participants will step off from Main Street and Pondview Lane at noon, head down Main Street to Newtown Lane and Lumber Lane, and finish at Herrick Park, where the celebration will continue until 3 p.m. There will be music in the park courtesy of D.J. Karin Ward and Mila Tina, a percussionist.

Those coming to the event from points west have the option to avoid the traffic and arrive by train, as the Long Island Rail Road will add a train specifically for the occasion. It will leave Speonk at 10:19 a.m., with stops at all stations between there and East Hampton, where it arrives at 11:02. Later in the day, there is a return train to Speonk departing East Hampton at 4 p.m. Tickets cost $7 each way.

The Sweet Smell of Nostalgia at Sagaponack General

Stepping into the new Sagaponack General Store, which reopened yesterday after being closed since 2020, is a sweet experience, and not just because there’s a soft-serve ice cream station on the left and what promises to be the biggest penny candy selection on the South Fork on your right, but because it’s like seeing an old friend who, after some struggle, made it big. Really, really big.
