Claudio’s Clam Bar & Wharf will host the fifth annual East End Restaurant Employee Gala on Monday, July 14, 2014 from 6pm to 10 pm. The event benefits the Joseph J. Theinert Memorial Fund, founded by 1Lt. Joe Theinert’s family after he was killed in action during combat operations in Afghanistan on June 4, 2010.

This year’s event will feature live music Top 40 covers by Wonderama, door prizes, raffles, and auctions. The M/V Lt. Joe Theinert will be docked at Claudio’s from 7:30pm to 9:30pm and open to guests.

Tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the door — which is a direct contribution to the Joseph J. Theinert Memorial Fund to help the foundation award local scholarships and support veterans.

A limited number of tickets are available to cruise roundtrip aboard the M/V Lt. Joe Theinert from South Ferry on Shelter Island to Claudio’s in Greenport.
