EAST HAMPTON, NY — Generosity and community spirit were once again on the agenda Thursday night as the East Hampton Lions Club held its monthly meeting at Palm Restaurant at the Huntting Inn.

East Hampton Lions Club President Lion Tina Piette and the rest of the Lions expressed the Club's support of the Clamshell Foundation and the East Hampton Health Care Foundation by presenting a donation to each organization.

Special guest speaker Robert Chaloner, Chief Administrative Officer of Stony Brook Southampton Hospital, shared the latest news about their planned facility in East Hampton, which, besides increasing convenience for East Hampton Town residents and visitors, would drastically shorten critical response time to emergencies, he said.
