Halfway to Jersey Shore

The fact that members from the Jersey Shore will be at the event should be enough to bring anyone in the door, but add in drink specials, bikinis, blowouts, gym and tanning gift cert giveaways and a raffle for an all expense paid Memorial Day Weekend in Seaside Heights and you’ll likely have to fist pump your way through the crowds to get in.
