Last year’s bartending competition raised $5000, which was presented to the Southern Ocean County Community Foundation during their Taste of Southern Ocean County Hunger Relief Dinner and Auction. A night made possible by local chefs and business community, the foundation is planning their 18th Taste Dinner “Havana Nights” on April 24 at Sea Oaks Country Club in Little Egg Harbor. To date the foundation has risen over $470,000 to directly benefit seven food banks within Southern Ocean County.
