Riders Gear Up for Hampton Classic; CTREE Honors Wolffer Stables

Good morning on this rainy Thursday. 

— Last night, news broke that Jennifer Lopez's stalker was found living at her Water Mill house earlier this month. The man is behind bars and undergoing a psychiatric evaluation. Sounds a lot like the situation Sean "Diddy" Combs was in with stalker at his East Hampton, right? For all the details click here. 

— The Center for Therauptic Riding of the East End is honoring Wolffer Estate Stables during its cocktail party at Sebonack Golf Course in Southampton on Thursday. The fundraiser and silent auction will take place from 6 to 9 p.m. 

— Paddle Georgica Pond with Mike Bottni on Thursday evening — that is, if the weather improves. He will lead the paddle from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Rentals are available. The paddle is sponsored by the Southampton Town Recreations Department and you can register with the town at 631-728-8585. If Thursday does't work out, check out Bottini's paddle where the flowers of the salt marsh along Accabonac Harbor are the focus on Saturday, from 9 to 11 a.m. Single kayaks are $40 tandem kayaks and canoes are $60 and stand up paddleboards are $50. Call the South Fork Natural History Museum at 631-537-9735 to reserve a spot in Saturday's adventure.
