“Welcome To Soldier Ride” Screening To Kick-Off Hamptons Soldier Ride Weekend

There will be a free showing of Welcome to Soldier Ride, a film by Matthew Hindra and Nicholas Kraus, on Friday, July 15th. The community is encouraged to gather at 8 p.m. on the Amagansett Square to watch this heartfelt and inspiring film that was inspired by the annual Wounded Warrior Project (WWP) Soldier Ride.

The screening will take place just one night before the actual Hamptons Soldier Ride event on Saturday, July 16th.

Kraus is well-known in the Hamptons community for being the long-time promoter and partner at the Stephen Talkhouse in Amagansett. He has also been a part of Soldier Ride from the very beginning.

“I have been involved from the start with Soldier Ride,” said Kraus. “Aside from mechanics, I’ve done everything from logistics to events to fundraising to public relations.”

Kraus and Hindra hope the community will come out and view Welcome to Soldier Ride to support the ride’s participants and to learn about the meaning behind the entire event. “We are screening Welcome to Soldier Ride in the Amagansett Square on Friday, one night ahead of the community ride, to inspire some additional folks to come ride with the warriors the next morning. Soldier Ride started in Amagansett and is now done around the world. We are proud of that and this film tells that story.”

Kraus shared that over 50 wounded soldiers will be coming to Soldier Ride for the very first time on the 16th. There is something very special about the small towns within the Hamptons community and he hopes that everyone will show their support and welcome the soldiers with open arms.

Soldier Ride originated in 2004 and is entering its twelfth year. When asked what he hopes for Soldier Ride in 20 years, Kraus remarked, “Wow. 20 years. We never thought this event would go past one ride in 2004, so that’s kind of hard to grasp. Again, what started as an idea in a bar in Amagansett at the Stephen Talkhouse has now become 30 rides a year in the states and duplicated by at least a half dozen other countries.” Kraus is impressed with the event’s success. “It’s pretty amazing,” he added. “But what I really have always hoped for is that things like the Wounded Warrior Project and Soldier Ride didn’t have to exist.”

Soldier Ride and Community Walk will begin at Amagansett Farm (551 Montauk Highway, Amagansett). There is a 30 mile and 60 mile Soldier Ride route. The day will begin at 7 a.m. for registration, followed by an opening ceremony at 8:30 a.m. Soldier Ride will begin at 9 a.m. and the Community Walk will begin at 9:15 a.m. The Lap of Heroes in Sag Harbor will commence at 11 a.m. and the day will finish with a community picnic at Amagansett Farm at 12 p.m. Participants are encouraged to bring a bicycle, helmet, water bottle and a fun attitude!

Registration for Soldier Ride is $60 (which includes a 2016 Soldier Ride t-shirt, event day festivities, bib number, and lunch) and $35 for participants 12 years and under. The fee for the Community Walk is $35. If you are active duty military, an active duty military family member, a student or would like to start or join a team, email [email protected] to get a promo code for discounted registration.

“Being involved with Soldier Ride has made me a much better (if not still flawed) person, given me purpose,” reflected Kraus. “I am always inspired by the dedication of our service members and how they take recovery head on. Working with Matt Hindra on the film [Welcome to Soldier Ride] taught me about patience and really seeing a story for what it can be. I guess one of the major things for me is being involved with something that becomes bigger than yourself. No bigger honor than that.”

Proceeds from the events will support Wounded Warrior Project, whose mission is to “raise awareness and enlist the public’s aid for the needs of injured service members, help injured service members aid and assist each other, and provide unique, direct programs and services to meet the needs of injured service members.”

  • Iconic Marders, More Than a Nursery

“Marders” is the high essence of a Hamptons Nursery and so much more. It is the epitome of success, situated on 40 acres of prime Bridgehampton real estate. Charlie Marder of 120 Snake Hollow Road, along with his wife Kathleen have built a monument that has been providing their expertise and services to the residents of the Hamptons for about fifty years.

The stories are now folklore. Back in the day, usually wearing his trademark suspenders, Charlie was ever ready to move the largest trees of the Hamptons whether they were to be planted, relocated, or removed. He once boasted to this reporter that he had the record for the widest load moved by the Shelter Island South Ferry. Charlie said he deposited a tree onto the ferry on one side and fetched it off the ferry on the other side, recalling, “The tree was wider than the ferry, sticking out on both sides.” @marderslandscaping

  • Discover Hamptons History with East Hampton Historical Society’s Guided Tours

We all know that September is the best month in the Hamptons. The summer renters have mostly gone (we’ll miss you!). The weather practically demands that you go out for a walk. Maybe you’ve been too busy at the beach or planning activities for the kids, but now that it’s September, take a stroll, stretch your legs, and explore the rich, beautiful history around the Hamptons.

The East Hampton Historical Society is hosting Guided Walking Tours around the Hamptons all September long, so stay a while and listen.

I love walking tours not just because of the guides, who are great storytellers, but the company and conversations sparked with other attendees. We’re the kind of people you’ll see, hands on hips, squinting to read the well-worn plaque on a historical monument. The people who read those brown signs, who pick up and read the local leaflets at a museum or hotel lobby.  @easthampton_histsoc

  • Real Estate with Diane Saatchi: The One That Got Away

When most people think back to the one that got away, they think about relationships.

I think about real estate.

After 35 years of selling real estate, I’ve seen more instances of homebuyers and sellers getting fixated on the one that got away than you’d think. For buyers, it could be that perfect three-bedroom waterfront cottage that was snapped up the day after they viewed it.

In cases like these, the one that got away isn’t just a quiet reminiscence — it’s a shadow that falls over the months and even years to come, making it difficult if not impossible for would-be buyers to find something that measures up to what they had, or thought they had, before.
