On Thursday, Citarella kicked off its summer fund-raising campaign for the East End Fund for Children, which supports programs at the Bridgehampton Childcare and Recreational Center, the Children's Museum of the East End, the Eleanor Whitmore Early Childhood Center, I-Tri, Project Most, the Retreat, and the Southampton Youth Association.

While rumors abound, and a real "if there's smoke there's fire" sense descends across the East End, so far, "We have no confirmation of any formal ICE activity within our jurisdiction," East Hampton Town Police Chief Michael Sarlo said in a statement Thursday.
