The City of Absecon held a Memorial Day parade on the morning of the holiday. There was also a Patriotic Bicycle Brigade. Helmets were required for participants. Members of the VFW and American Legion participated in the parade. Local officials, Oakcrest Marching Ambassadors, and Girl Scouts also marched in honor of fallen soldiers and veterans. Despite the rain, the community turned out in support.
