Montauk Friends Of Erin Select Captain Paul Forsberg As St. Patrick’s Day Parade Grand Marshal

“I am extremely honored and excited to lead the Montauk parade as Grand Marshal,” shared Captain Paul Forsberg of the Viking Fleet, who was chosen by the Montauk Friends of Erin as this year’s St. Patrick’s Day Parade honoree.

On Sunday, March 20th, Captain Forsber, a 65 year resident and business owner in Montauk, will help the 54th Montauk St. Patrick’s Day Parade step off at 11:30 a.m. and guide the family-friendly floats and fun down Edgemere Street, to South Edison St and finally to Main Street.

“The Montauk Friends of Erin feel that Paul and his family have helped keep Montauk, Montauk,” explained Joey Bloecker about why the organization selected Captain Forsber. “They’ve stuck with the fishing and boating industry throughout the chaos of the past couple of years.”

Along with a procession of amusingly themed platforms, shenanigans at New York’s second largest St. Paddy’s Day parade will include green face-painting, collecting foam shamrocks and shillelaghs to joyfully wave, amassing lucky beads and candy tossed from the floats of East End businesses and fire trucks, performances by Long Island bagpipe bands and more. “The St. Patrick’s Day Parade is an important event for Montauk because it signals the start of spring for locals and visitors, as well as brings in thousands of people to the hamlet that patronize businesses –restaurants, shops, hotels and our soup sale,” noted Laraine Creegan, Executive Director of the Montauk Chamber. The morning kicks off at 10 a.m., with the Chamber’s annual soup sale featuring varieties from local restaurants, which come in commemorative mugs, of course. This year’s participants include Montauk Yacht Club, Tillie’s of Gurney’s Inn, Duryea’s Lobster Dock, Inlet Seafood, John’s Pancake House, Sole East and more.

In 2013, Captain Forsber released a memoir, “Gone Fishin’ with the Viking Fleet,” which recounts over 75 years of Forsberg history. “He’s a reminder of where we came from and where we want to be,” added Bloecker.

You can start the St. Patrick’s Day celebrations a little early by attending one of the Montauk Friends of Erin pre-events, which begin with the 11th Annual Corned Beef and Cabbage Dinner at the Point Bar & Grill on Saturday, March 12th from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. Next up is the Grand Marshal’s Luncheon at Montauk Yacht Club Resort & Marina, which features a comical roast of Grand Marshal Captain Forsber and a presentation of his parade sash, top hat and shillelagh. The Luncheon will take place on Saturday, March 19th from 12 to 3 p.m., and will be followed by the Friends of Erin Gala Cocktail Party at Gurney’s Montauk Resort & Seawater Spa from 4 to 8 p.m.

Second Chances In The Hamptons

  • If all you know about Calissa in Water Mill is the celebrity-packed VIP section, you might be missing the big picture. The real star is the food. Calissa is the best Greek food in the Hamptons – confidently classic, casually chic – just what I’m looking for in a Hamptons dinner. ⁠
⁠
Thankfully, Calissa is not a reincarnation or reinvention. The focus is on execution and quality, not ego and look-what-we-can-do. It’s a classic for a reason.⁠
⁠
I may not be a food critic, but my fiancé is a private chef (actually, she’s “THE” private chef), so you already know how well we eat. That is to say, we had an incredible meal at Calissa, and I don’t think enough people are talking about how phenomenal the restaurant is.⁠

  • The 12th Annual Luxury Luncheon returned to Southampton Village with all the sparkle, star power, and style you’d expect from one of the East End’s most exclusive events.

  • On Tuesday, July 22nd, Olympic gold medalist Kerri Walsh Jennings hosted a charity Hampton Volley Tournament at Kirk Park Beach in Montauk. The tournament featured eight dynamic teams, uniting elite professional athletes, local lifeguards, and community members. Net proceeds from the tournament will go to the Hampton Lifeguard Association and P1440 Foundation, aiming to unite, empower, and inspire through the transformative sport of beach volleyball. ⁠
⁠
Simultaneously, a VIP gifting suite and lounge at Hero Beach Club in Montauk kept the momentum going with music by Rachel Winters and Ana Boo. To mark the special occasion, guests were treated to Hammitt bags with Montauk Tattoo personalized leather bag tags. In true VIP fashion, drinks flowed all throughout the day, compliments of Tito’s, Saint Spritz, Avaline, and Montauk Brewing Company. ⁠

  • Montauk has a new hospitality gem: Mary Lou’s Montauk. The high-energy, design-forward concept that blends coastal dining with a sense of playful excess. Mary Lou’s offers nightly dinner service, a full cocktail lounge and weekend music programming that blends nostalgic vibes with fresh energy.⁠
⁠
After launching in Palm Beach, the team behind Mary Lou’s, Alex Melillo, Joe Cervasio, and Topher Grubb, are bringing the vibe north, teaming up with NDT Development to open a new outpost at 474 West Lake Drive.⁠
⁠
Alex Melillo, co-founder of Mary Lou’s, shared about the origins of the concept, why Montauk was the next natural step and what guests can expect from this summer’s new venue.⁠
⁠
Can you walk us through the journey of how the idea for Mary Lou’s came to life?⁠
⁠
The idea for Mary Lou’s was born out of a genuine love for creating lasting memories and shared experiences. We’ve always admired the golden era of New York’s nightlife – when people went out to truly let go, to dance without restraint, and to enjoy the moment without ego. There was a certain magic back then, a raw energy that felt authentic and uninhibited.⁠

  • “Tonight is our most successful benefit ever!” said Louis Bradbury, LongHouse Reserve Board President, “We’re grateful for our co-chairs Gael Towey and Raisa Lopez-Rhoden, for their incredible leadership in bringing tonight to life.” For this special evening, themed, “LUMINOSITY’, the 16-acre sculpture garden and nature sanctuary lit up with vibrant colors, live music, community love, and lots of laughter. “With 100% board participation, our benefit sold out before invitations were ever sent!“, continued Bradbury, “How many of you have come to LongHouse more than once in a year? Have you seen the four seasons here? Daffodils, cherry blossoms, and azaleas in Spring; lush green of Summer; brilliant Autumn leaves, and spectacular snowdrops and witch hazel in Winter. Tonight, we come together in gratitude for all of it.”⁠
