Longport Mayor Nick Russo rides with the Motorcycle Drill Team at the Margate Hero Thrill Show Saturday, Aug. 28.

Civilian motorcycle riders were riding in honor of Isabel Nazario, a Philadelphia police officer who was killed in the line of duty in September 2008 when her patrol car was broadsided by a stolen SUV.

Local residents and some bakery regulars mingled on the patio outside, exchanging casual chit-chat and feasting on a smorgasbord of appetizers. The affair was the first for the little bakery in the heart of Mays Landing. But it was a very important day for one ACIT student.
