Calverton News: Shelter hosts ‘Wines and Canines’ event
It seems summer is being a little more gracious with us. It’s been a little bit cooler but a little more rain would be much appreciated. I hope you’re freezing any leftover corn! Also, enjoy some delicious peaches, tomatoes and other local produce!
Save the date! Kent Animal Shelter will host its annual “Wines and Canines” walk/run for the shelter’s homeless dogs Sunday, Sept. 25, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Baiting Hollow Vineyard. There are many fun activities planned and you get to bring your canine friend. For more information, call Kent at 631-727-5731 or visit kentanimalshelter.com.
Congratulations to 2011 Riverhead High School graduate Michael Drozd, who was recently chosen by his choir director at Queens College to perform with Josh Groban!

Best of luck in your future!
