The menu included lobster, littlenecks, kielbasa, corn, potatoes, and clam chowder! A great meal for the good cause of raising funds for the Legion.

From L to R: S. McLean, G. Cypherd, J. Spofford, S. Goulard, and J. Imbriglio. The Community Center, centered within Fort H.G. Wright’s former Building 98, first opened its doors in October 2008 after a major head-to-toe renovation.

Volunteers and sponsors work together each fall to make this event one of Fishers Island’s most fun-filled and healthy fundraisers. Money raised benefits the Fishers Island Community Center.
