Hello 08037! Who is ready for the holiday sea- son? I sure am! I love this time of year as family and friends get to gather, there is a chance for the first snow and the joy on faces as presents are opened! I am excited for you to check out our Holiday edition mag- azine dedicated to the lifestyle and community of Hammonton.

In our holiday issue we feature Well – Family medical and Urgent Care Services, where you are not just a number, you are like family. “I started as a nurse in 1998 and it was always like my patients are like my family,” explained Kelley Scott, who founded Well in Manahawkin three years ago. “I would never do something for them that I wouldn’t do for my own brother or my mom. I always took that very seriously.” Scott opened a second location in Hammonton in May. Well has 10 people, all board-certified practitioners, on staff among both locations. They can help manage acute (new) and chronic medical conditions including health/sport physicals and department of trans- portation physicals. Well takes walk- ins and takes most major medical insurances including Medicare. A basic office visit for those uninsured is $99. Find more about Well start- ing on page 8.

Also included in our Holiday edi- tion magazine: A look at Restaurant Week in Downtown Hammon- ton and more on page 7, a holiday shopping guide to help jumpstart the shopping season on page 13; Hammonton Happenings on page 16 and hear what our neighbors have to say when asked “What is your favorite holiday movie?” on page 2.

All of this and more awaits on the pages ahead!

Enjoy!
