Convention Hall is closed for the night as Meridian Health hosts a Wild West-themed event for its physicians and their guests.

“It’s a thank-you for their partnership with us,” said Meridian spokesperson Robert Cavanaugh. “We had it [in Convention Hall] last year and it’s a great venue, so we wanted to bring everyone back again.”

Meridian Health operates six hospitals in Monmouth and Ocean counties.

Convention Hall will be open as usual starting at 5 a.m. tomorrow morning when Asbury Roastery starts for the day. The boardwalk is also hosting the second annual Endless Summer Tiki Weekend, which starts today. Materials for the free event can be picked up at the entrance to the Splash Park.
