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.

Time for the Great Backyard Bird Count!

The ground will be covered in white for this year’s Great Backyard Bird Count, which starts Friday and lasts through Sunday, and that means feeders could be especially active and potentially yield some surprises.
