No matter how you like strawberries - baked into a shortcake, dipped in milk chocolate, buried inside a pie or unencumbered on a napkin or plate - you'll find them at the54th annual Mattituck Strawberry Festival and Fair on Father's Day weekend, June 13-15. "It's a local thing, but people come from all over Long Island," says Don Stirnweis, third vice president of the Mattituck Lions Club, which puts on the event with co-sponsor Capital One Bank and others each year to raise money for local causes and people in need.
