A sellout crowd filled the Peconic Landing community center for two seatings at Community Action Southold Town’s annual Have-a-Heart dinner last night. 

Proceeds from the dinner will go directly into CAST’s emergency fund to help neighbors in need. CAST has been providing a safety net for local families in need across the North Fork since 1965. Despite their affluent surroundings, thousands of North Fork residents are living at or below the poverty line.
