Suffolk Federal’s Eastport Branch Supports Camp Pa-Qua-Tuck

In an effort to support the charitable work of local organizations that serve the areas of Suffolk Federal branch locations, the credit union has identified nonprofit organizations to provide financial support to. In Eastport, Assistant Vice President of Retail Member Experience Micah Schlendorf presented a $1,000 contribution to Camp-Pa-Qua-Tuck in Center Moriches.

“Camp Pa-Qua-Tuck helps make the dreams of individuals with disabilities a reality,” said Mr. Schlendorf. “They are a true gem in our community helping individuals enjoy the beauty of the camp such as boating, arts and crafts, music and swimming during the summer. When we heard they were in need of raising funds for their swimming pool, we knew this was the best way Suffolk Federal could help support them.”

“The generous support that Suffolk Federal has provided makes it possible for us to continue to keep our camp a place where ‘summer is for everyone’,” said Alyssa Pecorino, director of Camp Pa-Qua-Tuck. “We rely on donations to support our operations, scholarships for needy campers and the necessary upgrades and repairs. This donation will help towards our new swimming pool and create some very happy campers.”

Hampton Coffee Announces It Will Reopen Cafes

According to a letter sent to customers by Coffee Company owners Jason and Theresa Belkin, since closing a month and a half ago, the company has looked at how it could restructure itself into a “To-Go” food establishment for the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic.

“You can be assured that our staff members are healthy and are having their temperatures checked before every shift,” the Belkins wrote in their letter. “We will be wearing gloves and masks at all times. We will be disinfecting often-touched surfaces like door knobs and milk pitchers often. Of course, we are following strict food safety measures like we always have.”

The cafes will also follow social distancing guidelines and limit the number of people allowed in the cafes at one time, according to the press release.
