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.
The Ladies Village Improvement Society’s annual fair happens on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and this year’s “is bigger than ever,” the society says. Not only will the carousel be back, but the Playland area for kids will be expanded. There will be face painting, a roving magician, a bubble artist, and pony rides for the little ones.
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.
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.
