By Sean McCall 

          The Watering Hole is hosting another banger, but this time, all proceeds will be going to Project HEAL.

“In acknowledgment of the successful start of Project HEAL: Southern New Jersey Chapter, we are throwing a benefit show to celebrate the new beginning of this chapter! We became an officially rcognized chapter on June 29, 2016 and it's time to celebrate and say thanks to everyone who was involved in making this huge stride in our community!

Proceeds will go directly to Project Heal and from there the money will be used to pay for grants to send those struggling with eating disorders to treatment. 

So what is Project HEAL?????

- Project Heal is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping those struggling with eating disorders financially as well as raising awareness.

- Our mission is to raise awareness about Eating Disorders of all types in Southern New Jersey. Let's talk about something too many people sweep under the rug. Let's break the stigma and raise awareness that E.D.'s are serious illness, but recovery is 100% possible!

Let's use this show to have fun and spread awareness and education on eating disorders!”

Luke Morsa, of Clearview, has summed up the show in one sentence:

          This show will be held on December 9th, 2016, at “The Watering Hole,” New Jersey, from 5PM-11PM.  It may not be sunny, it’s probably going to rain to be honest, but that’s okay because we’re all still going to have a great time.
