East Hampton Town Democrats and Republicans have put out the call for people interested in running for public office this year.

East Hampton Town Supervisor Peter Van Scoyoc announced Friday that he will retire from public service at the end of this year, opting not to seek re-election to a fourth term. His deputy supervisor, Councilwoman Kathee Burke-Gonzalez, will seek the Democrats' nomination for supervisor.

Two religious institutions, Calvary Baptist Church and the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of the South Fork, have ceremonies planned to mark the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s Birthday on Monday.

Registration opened last week for East Hampton Little League, including tee ball, baseball, and softball programs for kids as young as 5 and up to seventh grade.
