EAST HAMPTON, NY - Sometimes, in the face of challenges, laughter is the best medicine.
It was a laugh fest on Saturday night at the Montauk Firehouse, as the Montauk and Amagansett Fire Departments hosted a New York City-style stand up comedy show, “Fire and EMS Comedy Night”.

Montauk Chief Joseph Lenahan and Amagansett Chief Allen Bennett Jr. welcomed firefighters, emergency responders and their guests.
A 50/50 raffle was also part of the comedy night festivities. The monies raised were to help an ex-chief from a neighboring fire department in offsetting traveling expenses for trips back and forth to New York City. The winner of the 50/50 raffle donated their winnings back to the monies raised.
