In Montauk, a Theatrical Scavenger Hunt, Medical Supplies, and a Virtual 5K

Thu, 05/07/2020 - 12:53

The Montauk Food Pantry is hosting a Montauk Need 2 Feed Virtual 5K to raise money for food for the pantry and to help feed more than 275 families every other week. Beginning on Saturday and ending on May 17, run, walk, hike, or jog anywhere and post your results. For more information and to register visit their web page online at events.elitefeats.com/need2feed20.

The Neo-Political Cowgirls, a South Fork nonprofit theater and dance company, with Kate Mueth as artistic director, will present “Primavera!” — a mythical celebration of spring in theatrical scavenger form — online on Sunday at 5 p.m. This is similar to the com­pany’s “Zima” performance in downtown Montauk in February and is appropriate for all ages. Tickets can be purchased at npcowgirls.com.

The Montauk Chamber of Commerce has medical supplies in bulk for chamber members to purchase, including ear loop face masks, vinyl exam gloves, hand sanitizer, and sanitizing wipes. Those interested have been asked to email kay.tyler@ montaukchamber.com.

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.
