Throw a Surprise Birthday Party!

We promise we won't just make this a list of different parties to host at Dune.  But we'd have to say, one of the better Hamptons hurrays we've thrown was for our very own Carson Griffith. Birthdays are always a good excuse to spend money.

Call the Copter

Helicopters are a great way to show status, and really, who spend hours upon hours in traffic on the LIE when you could get to the same destination in only 45 minutes?  Plebeians, that's who.

Throw a Backyard BBQ
