36th Annual Fall Family Festival Delights In Montauk: Photos

MONTAUK, NY — For the 36th year in a row, the Montauk Chamber of Commerce delivered even more fun than promised on Saturday and Sunday, as Main Street was closed once again for the Annual Fall Family Festival.

As always, the main event was the world famous Clam Chowder Contest, where local restaurants competed in the Red and White categories. A Farmers Market, a carousel, music by the Lynn Blue Band and the 3Bs, local clams and oysters, crab races, Oktoberfest-style foods, bouncy castle and other inflatable fun, face painting, both human and pumpkin, and much more provided something for everyone.

Following are the Chowder Contest winners, provided by Sally Krusch:
