One of Montauk’s premier hot spots, The Surf Lodge, is selling hoodies for $80 to benefit the Montauk Chamber of Commerce. 100% of proceeds will be donated to the Chamber to stimulate the growth and development of the local community and economy.

“Our team is focused on what we can do for the community,” said Surf Lodge and Snow Lodge Aspen owner, Jayma Cardoso.

In early March, Cardoso closed down her Aspen location, during an otherwise peak season, to protect her staff from COVID-19. In an effort to bring all of the sweatshirts back to the east coast for the fundraiser, an employee got in her truck and drove them to Montauk. “At times like these, you can see the best in people or the worst in people. I’m really proud of our team. They’re constantly thinking about how they can help,” she said.
