The Eastville group will have its annual fish fry on Saturday from 4 to 7 p.m. at its Heritage House at 139 Hampton Street in Sag Harbor. The cost is $30 per person and includes dinner, a beverage, and dessert. It will be held rain or shine.

In Amagansett, the Fire Department's yearly barbecue will return on Aug. 15 from 2 to 6 p.m. Admission is $25 for adults, $15 for children. Tickets are available from department members.
