The nonprofit organization I-Tri, which fosters empowerment, self-esteem, and healthful lifestyle choices among teen and pre-teen girls on the East End, is planning a bicycle ride with an optional lunch and wine tasting as a fund-raiser on Oct. 10.

Participants can choose between the Ride and Wine 10-mile ride or a 30-mile one, both of which begin and end at "a stunning private residence" in Bridgehampton, I-Tri said in an announcement. Boxed lunches and the wine tasting, if chosen, will be enjoyed in a socially distanced, outdoor atmosphere. The rain date is Oct. 11.

Entry rates start at $100 to ride. Participants have been encouraged to turn the trip into a fund-raiser themselves by raising $1,500 or more from friends and sponsors. More information is online at itrigirls.org.

Montauk Chemists Opens, Minus Pharmacy

Frank Calvo, the longtime pharmacist at White’s Drug and Department Store, which closed on Oct. 31, has opened Montauk Chemists on Main Street and is selling over-the-counter merchandise including vitamins and self-care products. One week after an inspection of the store’s pharmacy, however, he is still awaiting New York State approval to operate it.

Slow Start at New Gosman’s

In some ways, Gosman’s Dock, one of Montauk’s few remaining family-owned and operated businesses until its October 2024 sale, closely resembles the complex of restaurants and shops long revered by locals and visitors alike. In other ways, though, it is markedly different under its new ownership.
