there
are certain milestones to keep in mind while in the hamptons: may puts
a kibosh on off-season solitude, july fourth marks the end of beach parking
sans a permit, come august many bolt for summering a la france, and somewhere
in between you can expect bridgehampton
polo.
muster
up the determination to leave the beach this saturday by 3:30, wipe the
sand from your feet, throw on something pretty, and you can make an a-line
for the usual guest-list only mercedes-benz kickoff.
the giant white tent (smack in the middle of two trees stables) will host about
1000 eager, cocktail drinking guests, while another 400 tickets will be available
to the public. and although most haven't clue - the event is actually philanthropic
- with proceeds (the $20 parking fee) donated to the south fork breast health
coalition.
other weekends will be hosted by sponsors equinox, and town and country, and
of course, a slew of enthusiastic hamptonites proving that saturdays from july
17th thru august 21st are actually as monumental as let's say - driving out
in under two hours.
