Montauk's 43rd annual Fall Fest is coming this weekend. On Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on the downtown green, there will be farmers market vendors, activities for kids, bands, beer and wine, a silent auction, and, on Saturday beginning at 10 a.m., the popular clam chowder contest.
Commemorative mugs to fill with chowder can be purchased at the chamber office downtown starting at 9 a.m. Saturday. Then people can line up for a sample of chowder prepared by local eateries and chefs.
