Southold Town to Travel to Fishers Island Wednesday
Town types to take the ultimate field trip to check in on their eastern most hamlet.

Sometimes — well, most of the time — we North Forkers don't really think about the easternmost hamlet of Southold Town — Fishers Island, a unique little land much closer to Connecticut than New York.
But once a year in August, members of the Southold Town Board take a special ferry ride out to the island, 11 miles away from Orient Point and a part-time home to some of the country's richest.
Stay tuned tomorrow for pictures and coverage of this annual gathering at the Fishers Island School. Click here for the full agenda from Southold Town.
