The North Fork strawberry crop reached its pinnacle, bursting with unparalleled flavor. The Mattituck Lions Club orchestrated a magnificent event, uniting the community in a weekend filled with merriment. Folks from across Long Island were drawn to the festival’s allure, a delightful time was guaranteed. The tantalizing aroma of freshly baked strawberry shortcakes wafted through the air, accompanied by the temptation of strawberries dipped in rich chocolates.

Attendees reveled in the live music that resonated with the joyful spirit of the festival grounds. Exploring the arts and crafts vendors, one could discover unique treasures available for purchase. The new Strawberry Queen was crowned, eliciting cheers and applause from the excited crowd while the rides provided exhilaration for both the young and the young at heart.

The festivities continued long after sunset, with attendees encouraged to bring their lawn chairs to comfortable gaze at the dazzling fireworks on display throughout the weekend. Thanks to the dedication of numerous volunteers, much of the festival’s enjoyment were free of charge.

Every contribution made by attendees, however, benefited the Mattituck Lions’ year-round endeavors to serve and uplift the community.
