"Local Pub Tends to Local Mentally Handicapped"
By Shera Sleuth
Solomon's River Picayune

There are several locations around Solomon's River that serve the general public their beverages of choice, but one new location, literally built upon the ashes of another bar, is different.  McShane's Pub is changing the way people see the mentally handicapped.

"I work hard to make sure the handicapped of Solomon's River have a place to go where everyone knows their names," said Mick Shane, owner.  "The clientele are very... 'interesting.'  I must say, however, the job is very rewarding."

While I was interviewing the bar owner, numerous customers entered, ordering their usual drinks and having a grand old time.  Despite the shattered glass and alcohol on the floor, I give this location eight thumbs up!!!!!!!!
