A fund-raiser for Capt. Skip Rudolph of the Montauk charter boat Adios, who is battling medical issues, will happen on Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. at La Fin restaurant, at 474 West Lake Drive at Montauk Harbor.
The event will feature live music by Kathleen Fee, raffles, and a 50/50 drawing. Those who cannot attend can donate to a GoFundMe campaign through which friends are hoping to raise $20,000 to help support the Rudolph family. More than $11,000 had been raised as of Tuesday afternoon.
Montauk’s 64th annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade, happening at noon on March 29, is free to all. Two popular pre-parade events are likely to sell out, however, so those interested have been advised to secure tickets.
The famously brief Am O’Gansett Parade will begin Saturday at 12:01 p.m., led this year by Jim Lubetkin as grand marshal.
Jennifer DiPretoro experienced coughing fits while on vacation in Madrid. A pulmonologist there told her she had lung cancer, and her low oxygen levels prevented her from flying home. She is now stranded with no health insurance.
