• The North Fork Animal Welfare League’s Southold animal shelter has an unusual problem and they need the help of men. They have several dogs that are a bit fearful of men and they need to desensitize them, but they have no male employees in Southold and few male volunteers. If any men can give them 15 minutes one or two days a week, it would be a great help to the dogs.

• The anti-drug program Riverhead CAP is hosting a Meet & Greet tomorrow, April 16 from 3 to 5 p.m. at the Riverhead United Methodist Church, where they will be talking about the work the Riverhead Community Coalition is doing and how you can contribute to make the Riverhead community a healthy and safe environment for kids. There will be light refreshments and give-aways.

And that’s the way things look at dawn’s light here today.
