Stony Hill Stables: Family, Fun, And Fundraising

Devon Aragonaby Devon Aragona

Pirouettes, ponies, a few wild animals, and of course some “thriftshop”– all key ingredients for a successful fundraiser in the Hamptons.

The Stony Hill Stable Foundation benefit in Amagansett on Saturday, June 29 was something to remember.

The showcase was kicked off with barn owner and trainer Wick Hotchkiss showing off her skill with a fresh freestyle to the hit song “Thrift Shop” by Macklemore. She even dressed the part in a fur vest, price tag still intact, with a wild shirt underneath.

Student riders disguised themselves, as well as some of their mounts, as different wild animals to perform as a drill team. Riding to the Sister Sledge hit “We Are Family,” they performed maneuvers such as serpentines, changing rein, circles, and of course down center line to show off their riding skills.

“It is a very unifying event for the stables,” Maureen Bluedorn, the foundations president said. “All the parents come out to help the kids get ready. All the kids help each other.”

A very special treat was planned especially for the fundraiser.

Stony Hill Stables trainer Janet Harms demonstrated the western style riding of reining on the barns little palomino, Chicky. A set pattern where riders take horses through a series of spins, circles and sliding stops. It is commonly described as a sort of western dressage.

The evenings entertainment was rounded out with an amazing performance by Hotchkiss on a beautiful white lusitano stallion that has been trained up through Prix St. Greorges which is one of the highest levels of dressage. They showcased freestyle to Shakira’s ” Whenever, Whenever..” in Spanish and English.

The event helped raise over $55,000 for the foundation, aiding in providing approximately five full time scholarships for children this next year.

“Seeing the local children gather and take shape is so great.” Bluedorn says.

The evening overall was great fun for both the students, and the attendees which included Edward Burns, as well as two of the most recent recipients of a scholarship, Renny Murphy of Springs and Georgia Bunce of East Hampton.

The stables are still taking applications for their scholarship program. If interested visit www.stonyhillstables.com.

Tea Party To Salute The Southampton Animal Shelter At The Village Latch Inn

Tea Party To Salute The Southampton Animal Shelter At The Village Latch Inn

  • Dust off your favorite witch’s hat and opt for a paddleboard instead of a broom for Paddle Diva & Wych’s Bloom’s inaugural Witches Paddle on Wednesday, October 29, from 4–6 p.m. at Paddle Diva (10 Boat Yard Rd., East Hampton, NY). A portion of the proceeds will go to the Surfrider Foundation’s Eastern Long Island Chapter and its efforts to protect the world’s oceans, waves, and beaches through dedicated activism. ⁠
⁠
We’ve all seen Witches Paddles grace our social media feeds, and now you can partake in the spooky fun! This tradition combines Halloween vibes with the healing power of nature as you glide and take in the beautiful Three Mile Harbor views.⁠
⁠
Gina Bradley excitedly shared, “I am thrilled to be hosting this at Paddle Diva’s permanent location inside Swan’s Marina (formerly Vanderveer’s). This kind of paddle has been on my mind for many years, as I’ve seen them in all parts of the world, and it looks so cool seeing all the witches gracefully gliding along the water. This is particularly exciting because we’ve joined forces with Wych’s Bloom, a local herbal apothecary brand, and Surfrider to raise money and awareness for ocean and clean bay initiatives that are crucial for our waters on the East End of Long Island.”⁠
⁠
“As an herbalist, Samhain, or Halloween, offers a special occasion for me to celebrate the healers who came before us to teach the wisdom of the plants in our region. I had seen people gathering for Witches Paddles all over the country, and as a surfer, I connected instantly with these events. When I texted Gina the idea, she was immediately in. That’s what I love about the women on the East End—they’re always up for an adventure,” shared Wych’s Bloom owner and Surfrider Foundation board member Christina Winters.⁠
⁠
Join us in taking part in this one-of-a-kind event! Craft a witch’s outfit and set sail at the inaugural Witches Paddle for a great cause.⁠

  • From Hollywood red carpets to Milan exhibits and Hamptons fashion shoots, Filbert Kung has photographed the world—but it’s his quiet, unguarded, and attentive nature that reveals the artist behind the lens.⁠ @filbert_kung 
⁠
I met Filbert Diego Kung at a Grey/Ven fashion event in Amagansett last summer. He’s one of those rare photographers who instantly puts you at ease—calm, composed, and naturally good at making anyone feel like they belong in front of his lens. Had I known then just how in-demand Filbert is in the fashion and photography world, I probably wouldn’t have asked him to snap a few shots of me goofing off on the red carpet. But maybe that makes me a model? Either way, it was my first glimpse of how effortlessly he captures people as they are. In my case, goofy-but-make-it-chic.⁠
⁠
Since then, I’ve seen him popping up around the Hamptons, often between flights to LA, Miami, or wherever the next big editorial or campaign takes him. Originally from the Philippines, Filbert has spent over fifteen years building a career that bridges Hollywood red carpets, high-fashion editorials, and fine art portraiture. ⁠
