Finding itself at least $300,000 short on revenue, the Eleanor Whitmore Early Childhood Center petitioned the East Hampton School District to add $250,000 to its upcoming budget vote to support day care and prekindergarten for its 100 students, most of whom will one day attend school in East Hampton.
In February, when a 5-month-old puppy went missing at Edward V. Ecker Sr. County Park in Montauk, it seemed as if every pet lover in the hamlet was on the case. In the end, however, it was Kelly Brach and two of her trained tracking dogs that reunited the missing dog, Lucy, with her family.

Long an advocate for the total repaving and repairing of that road, Mr. Thiele assured his constituents this week that the inconvenience of the project will be worthwhile.
