Does anything say 'happy holidays' like a large, plush llama?

This year, for the Star's Happy Holidays Raffle, the prize is the aforementioned llama. Entries are being accepted through Sunday, Dec. 19, at several locations across the South Fork.

The Marshall & Sons Service Center at 701 Montauk Highway in Montauk, Stuart's Seafood Market at 41 Oak Lane in Amagansett, are taking part. Smokin' Wolf at 199 Pantigo Road and VJS Studio at 24 Gingerbread Lane are the places to go in East Hampton. In Bridgehampton, entries are being accepted at English Country Home, 26 Snake Hollow Road, and in Southampton at Fowler's Garden Shop, 175 North Sea Road.

Finally, if you're having a hard time convincing your child to go to the dentist, use the raffle as an enticement: you can submit your name at Hampton Pediatric Dental, 97 North Main Street, in Southampton.

No purchase is necessary to enter the raffle.

First East Hampton, Then the World

In the summer of 2011, Alex Esposito and James Mirras addressed a specific need with Hamptons Free Ride, an electric shuttle service that ran in a fixed loop through East Hampton and from parking lots in town to Main Beach. Since then, a “hometown side project” has developed into Circuit, an all-electric, on-demand “micro-transit” solution in more than 40 cities and towns.

WordHampton Moves Downtown

The public relations firm WordHampton has long had its finger on the pulse of what’s going on in the East End business community. That comes with the job. And now, with a new office overlooking Park Place in East Hampton Village, it is part of that pulse in a way that was not quite as tangible from its former headquarters in Springs.

Sag Harbor Rejects Proposed Tree Settlement

The case of Augusta Ramsay Folks, an 81-year-old accused of cutting down two trees on Meadowlark Lane in Sag Harbor in June of last year — in violation of the village’s new tree-protection law — was back in court on July 8, when a settlement proposed by Ms. Folks was rejected by the village and then withdrawn by her attorney.
