Heat Kills: Criminal Act to
Leave Pets in Vehicle
Each year thousands of animals are
left in vehicles at stores or restaurants.
Many owners dont consider this cruel
or mean but believe they are giving the
dog an enjoyable day out with their
owner.
Unfortunately, many of these owners
also learn the hard way just what can
happen to a pet left in a car for even as
little as five minutes. Whether in the
full sun or full shade, windows up,
cracked or completely down, water
available or notdont leave your pet in
the car. Not only is it not a good idea
its a CRIME!
If you see an animal left in a vehicle
please act by contacting a store employ-
ee, your local police department and
local humane society or SPCA. I

Delsea High Receives New
Instruments in Memory of
Alumnus
Delsea Regional alumnus Dwayne
Fennal passed away while working as a
lineman for Atlantic City Electric. Just 35
years old at the time of his death, Fennal
left behind a wife and three children. In
the wake of tragedy, his family decided to
use his untimely passing to help children
in the local area by asking that donations
be made in his memory to the Delsea
Regional High School Music Department.
As a result, new instruments, including
flutes, saxophones, trumpets, and trom-
bones, will be purchased with the money
that has been raised through Fennals
memorial fund. The instruments will
serve to assist current middle and high
school students in stepping up to interme-
diate level instruments. The instruments
that are being replaced will be donated to
Mr. Frank Knauss and the Aura
Elementary music program. Since Mr.
Fennal once walked the halls of Aura
Elementary, it is a fitting tribute to an
individual who was so full of life and had
such a love of music.
Fennal, an Elk Township resident and
graduate of Delsea Regional High School,
had a great love for music and was a self-
taught guitarist and saxophonist. Sharing
a love of music is Dwaynes legacy to the
district.

The Salvation Armys Adopt-a-Famly
Program We have it down to a science,
said Diana Mastrogiovanni, office manag-
er, pictured with attorney Michael D.
Capizola, receiving a plaque from
Captains Miguel and America Barriera.
and from the Program's Committee
Leaders Wanda Lopez and Steve Plevins.
We divide the names among us choosing
either a toy or clothing for each, with the
attorneys contributing money for the
supermarket gift cards. We all enjoy visu-
alizing giving a family some happiness
instead of unneeded gifts to each other.
The Salvation Army provides a wonderful,
efficient avenue to do this.

Vineland Volunteer
Firefighters Begin Duty Crew
Program
On June 1, volunteer firefighters from
the City of Vineland began a duty crew
program from 6 to 11 p.m. Each night, a
group of four to six firefighters from the
five volunteer stations, are on duty and
available to respond to emergency calls in
Vineland. The duty crew program will
provide a quicker response time to calls in
the southeastern section of the city and
increase training availability.
A committee of firefighters from the
Volunteer Firefighters Association of
Vineland began in early 2013 researching
duty crew models and polling members as
to their interest. The proposed duty crew
program received a positive and enthusi-
astic response. The committee met regu-
larly and created a system that will
improve service to Vineland residents.
The committee with the support of the
Director of Fire, Robert Ternay and Chief
of Department, Robert Pagnini worked
diligently to prepare the program for
implementation and include the ability to
expand the program in the future.
The duty crews will initially be housed
at Station 2 on Sherman Avenue. The
committee plans on implementing the sec-
ond phase of the duty crew program with-
in the next two years. This would place an
additional duty crew staffed engine in
North Vineland at Station 3 on Forest
Grove Road.
All firefighters participating in the pro-
gram are active Vineland volunteers that
have at a minimum the Firefighter 1 certi-
fication. Many also have advanced training
and qualifications in areas such as rescue,
incident command, fire ground strategy
and tactics, and other skills. In addition,
each night the crew will have a chief level
officer on duty for response to large scale
incidents and other situations as needed.
The duty crew committee is led by
Deputy Chief Robert Cresci, Captain
Brandon McDonald, and Captain Michael
DOrazio. Other committee members
include Volunteer Firefighter Association
President Richard Franchetta, District
Chief James Hoffman, District Chief Ryan
Sbrana, Deputy Chief Michael Cifaloglio
Jr., Captain Jim Harris, and Firefighter
Jeff Kraus. I

the birds arrive each year just as the areas
horseshoe crabs begin to spawn. Shorebirds
depend on the nutrients found in horseshoe
crab eggs to give themthe strength they
need to reach their breeding grounds in the
Arctic. While Mother Nature has this
process mapped out pretty well, shes all for
science lending a hand so before the birds
depart, some important dat&a is collected.
The birds are weighed, measured, and test-
ed for viruses like the avian flu. Some of the
birds are also given geo-locators, so scien-
tists can track their travels. Each bird is
given a uniquely numbered leg band and
flag tag that can be seen using a telescope or
binoculars. Some birds return, while others
are neweach year.
Interestingly, there is one Red Knot
thats famous for having flown the distance
fromthe moon and halfway back (so far) in
its lifetime. Known as Moonbird, he is the
subject of a childrens book penned by
award-winning author, Phillip Hoose. Last
month, the real Moonbird was seen on the
Delaware Bay. He was spotted by two of
the scientists that were working with us,
said Galetto. They could tell it was himby
his tag number, B95, and couldnt wait to
call the book author. Hoose later tweeted
his fans about the good news.
Ultimately, our goal is to help the birds
get to the Arctic, said Larry Niles of the
Conserve Wildlife Fund of New Jersey and
the American Littoral Society. We are
making progress, but there is plenty more
to do. The Bayshore has many issues,
which is why its so important to increase
our volunteer base through organizations
like the CU. Niles explained that a few
years ago population of the red knots
declined sharply. Over the last couple of
years, were seeing more of them, which is
good, he said, but we have a long way to
go and need all the assistance we can get.
While the Shorebird Recovery scientists
come to southern New Jersey mainly for
the birds, the company is quite a draw as
well. CU members spent more than 500
volunteer hours cooking meals (for up to
50 people at a time), assisting the scientists
with setting nets, banding, mapping, and
even entertaining. CU members make it
happen every year.
Why go to all the trouble, you might
ask? Because our members are proud to be
part of the CU, said Galetto. They simply
love bringing folks together that care about
the river, and then networking to have a
huge impact. Together, the CU protects
thousands of acres of watershed, restores
avian species, educates the areas citizens,
engages the community, and raises much-
needed funds. Its list of offerings and
accomplishments is impressive, and the
organizations 450 members spend an aver-
age of 7,000 volunteer hours a year to make
sure it stays that way.
So far, so good for those of us who live
in the region. Even Moonbird made a spe-
cial appearance to say thanks. I
Want to help? You can start by visiting
www.cmmauriceriver.org and subscribing to
the CUs newsletter. The website also pro-
vides information on volunteering, as well as
on learning about and enjoying the natural
resources the CU works so hard to protect.

Ah Why Knot Winners
Each year, the CU recognizes vol-
unteers for their significant contribu-
tions to the organizations spirit and
success. The 2014 "Ah Why Knot"
awards went to two teams of three
volunteers.
The first trio includes CU members
Wendy Walker, Judy Nelson and Mike
Golla. If theres a walk, a table to set
up to represent CU, an event, some-
thing that needs cooking or carting,
fun to be had, or a member in need,
these three volunteers are always
ready and willing to help, said
Galetto. They give of their time and
talents with great dedication and joy.
The second winning trio includes
Cheryl Reardon, Jody Carrara and
Sandy Batty of the Association of
New Jerseys Environmental
Commissions. Batty, Executive Director
of the ANJEC, recently announced her
plans to retire after 28 years of serv-
ice. Carrara serves as Project Director
for Coastal Planning at ANJEC, and
Reardon directs the South Jersey
Bayshore Project. This trio of dedicat-
ed women were recognized for years
of planning workshops, giving advice
on a whole host of environmental
issues, recruiting advocates, volunteer-
ing at festivals, supporting fundrais-
ers, making dinner for the shorebird
recovery team, helping with the pig
roast, and much more.
Recognized with this years
Presidents Award was Clive Minton,
the Shorebird Recovery Teams inspi-
rational leader. Clive is one of the
foremost recognized shorebird
experts on the planet, says Galetto.
His great enthusiasm for life, people
and, of course, shorebirds, dominates
his landscape. His joy is contagious.

Our columnist shares a great sandwich
recipe as well as fond memories of Dad.
E
very summer, our dad would take
us all over for car rides and a spe-
cial treat was always waiting for us
at the Landisville Farmers Club. He
would sneak us in and Lawrence would
make us the best steak sandwich on a
heel and serve it up with tart pickled
peppers and chunks of provolone cheese
on the side.
After that, we would head on down to
the boiler house at the plant, which
would later become Scott Paper Co.
There was a little stream running right
next to the boiler house and I remember
that on the hot summer days, it was
always icy cold, and Linda and I would
wade in it and then go explore under the
abandoned railroad tracks and create all
sorts of adventures! Summertime with
Dad sure was fun!
I still look for a great sandwich at
lunchtime when I am at work and have
found three in the area that I save for my
special treat. For authentic Italian food, I
hit La Locanda across from work on Main
Road for their eggplant Parmigiana sand-
wich on the crusty rollincredibly savory
and delicious.
Once in a while, Gardellas Deli on
Brewster Road calls out to me for their
Mortadella & Provolone on the little tor-
pedo rolla luscious indulgence.
And across the street on Main Road is
Deeks Deli, under new management with
a new and inspired menu featuring my
favoritesthe pork, broccoli rabe and
Provolone on a sesame seeded roll... There
is nothing like a good lunch to perk up the
day, and all of these sandwiches remind
me of those wonderful times with Dad.
Here is my take on a little treat that I
make for myself in the summer and the
most important part is the bread. I love
ciabatta rolls and for me it makes the
sandwich!
Grilled Veggie Panini
Eggplant, zucchini, portobello mush-
rooms
2 tbsp Hellman's mayo mixed with 1
tsp Grey Poupon mustard and 1 tsp
apricot preserves
2 slices of Gouda cheese
Handful of arugula
Ciabatta roll
If you have access to a grill, then
grilling the vegetables is the best. Grill all
until cooked to your preference, then
glaze with a little EVOO and compile the
sandwich on your ciabatta roll.
I line both insides of the roll with the
mayo mixture, then add the veggies and
cheese and arugula. I swipe the outside of
the roll with EVOO and then place on grill
for a few minutes to crisp up. Serve warm
with your favorite cole slaw and you have
a great summertime lunch! I

Little Girls Need Their Daddies
by Sherry Munyan
When they are small to hold their hands and
guide the way
To fend off nightmares and to say
Sleep tight little girl daddys here
Theres nothing to fear singing Camptown
Races five miles long doo-dah doo-dah
Little Girls Need Their Daddies
To lift them up to place an angel on top of the
Christmas tree
To assemble the dollhouse bring it here let
me see
To curl up on daddys lap in the chair, thumb
in, head down
There is no sweeter place in town!
Little Girls Need Their Daddies
To be their first male role model, dance part-
ner and movie date
To teach them how to ski
Knees bent, head up - follow me
Little Girls Need Their Daddies
To teach them right from wrong never lie,
cheat, or steal
If you do these three things honey we have a
deal
To watch Sunday soccer
games and attend
their dancing shows
To quietly be patient as
their teenage atti-
tude grows
Little Girls Need Their
Daddies
To teach them how to drive with care
How to change the oil, where is that spare?
To always carry a flashlight and a tire gauge
Time flies by turn the page
Little Girls Need Their Daddies
To walk them down the aisle
To dance to Butterfly Kisses and linger a while
To hold in their arms a new precious life
A bright-eyed granddaughter loved and pro-
tected from the start
A new little girl has stolen daddys heart
A little girl needs her daddy to the very end
When its time to say goodbye to her lifelong
friend
Thank you Daddy doesnt seem nearly
enough to the man
Who created and inspired me to be the
woman Ive become.

CRUISE...
Cruise Down Memory Lane
Landis Avenue is Memory Lane for those
who grew up in Vineland back in the
daythe 1950s, when muscle cars
reigned supreme, as well as the cruising
days of the 1960s, 70s, and 80s. Every
year in early June, classic car enthusiasts
and motorheads converge on Landis
Avenue to reminisce and relive those
days and nights.

23rd Annual Cruise
Down Memory Lane
By Marvin Askins, Cruise Down Memory
Lane Coordinator
B
oy, time flies (if you dont count
what appeared to be our never-end-
ing winter this year) and its that
time again for the 23rd annual Cruise
Down Memory Lane in Vineland. The
cruise has become an institution that
brings vehicles from the past and their
owners, who mix with auto enthusiasts
from all over the East Coast, together. It
has turned into an annual pilgrimage for
so many regulars who enjoy showing and
looking at each others vehicles, especially
the first timers that show up.
This event would not have been possi-
ble if it wasnt for the hard core commit-
ted volunteers who for years have helped
to coordinate this event with the City of
Vineland and its various departments,
including the police, Vineland Downtown
Improvement District, Cumberland
County Fire Police, supporters and spon-
sors. Plans and coordination of efforts for
the cruise now begin in the early fall of
each year.
This year, as the year before, the cruise
is sponsored by the owner of Vinelands
Golden Corral, Bill Schism, who is an
ardent car enthusiast. He owns a beautiful
Red Hemi powered Plymouth Road
Runner that is featured in this years
Cruising Magazine ad for the cruise and
the free dash plaque that will be given to
the first 1,000 participants. How did he
become a sponsor you may ask? Well, in
2011 during the 21st annual cruise, Bill
tried to participate but was one of the
500-plus vehicles that were turned away
because the avenue was full. Some of you
may remember that cars were parked in
the center of Landis Avenue for the first,
and last, time. It was reported, but not
confirmed, that in excess of 2,000 vehicles
showed up that day. Rather than get upset,
Bill got in touch with us and offered to
sponsor the cruise.
Then there are the supporters who
donate money, equipment, discounts or
services because they believe in the event.
The volunteers are those who either have
performed the same duties over the years
like work the staging areas at
Cunningham School or West Avenue, the
gates at East and West avenues, the park-
ers, traffic control personnel and so many
others who just ask what they can do to
make it a success year after year.
Then there are the car clubs and indi-
viduals that display their vehicles who are
the stars of the cruise who make up the
Cruise Down Memory Lane with their
pre-1974 or highly modified late models.
Checking out the flat head engines,
straight eight engines, the fins, chrome,
hood ornaments and the various things on
cars and trucks always summon up memo-
ries of days gone by.
Although the cruise is mainly focused
on the era between the Model T and
before the first gas crisis of the early
1970s, modified American cars of any year
are always eye pleasers due to the new
and innovative ideas of the owners. So, if
you have a chance to come to the free
cruisewhether as a participant or spec-
tatorremember it takes the city, a spon-
sor, supporters, a lot of dedicated people
(inclusive of yourself ) to make it an enjoy-
able event for the city of Vineland. I

T
he theater of classic cars is often
viewed as a setting for men alone. But
through an intriguing mix of interest
and necessity, many supporting roles and
even principal roles are filled by women. In
the audience, the wings, and the perform-
ance itself (if you watch closely), there are
couples in the spotlight, sharing the venue of
accumulating, restoring, showing, and driv-
ing the meticulous masterworks that bring
the glorious past into the problematic pres-
ent for hundreds of our areas delighted car
people.
Linda and Bill Smiths car collection fills
both the spotless five-bay garage under the
trees behind their immaculate Millville
home and an auxiliary rented space in
Cedarville. They have owned most of these
beauties for decadesbuying them, they
carefully note, when they were affordable
and usually needed drastic rebuilds. Three of
the nine are Lindas.
The retired glass industry workers jewel
is her red 1961 Corvette, gifted by her hus-
band after he restored the interior to like-
wise match her favorite color. She also owns
a 1936 Ford coupe, which they both drive a
lot but that remains unrestored. (Barn
ready, Bill called it.). A second vintage Ford,
original and gleaming black, completes her
part of the shared treasures.
They met in 1962 when Bill was 25 and
married the day after Linda graduated from
high school. Nobody doubted he was a car
guy, she said.
They'll celebrate 51 years next week. She
claims only once did she ever say, You're
not going to restore that one, are you?
Linda is philosophical, even mystical,
about her role as a car gal.
When Bill gave me cars, it wasn't some-
thing I wanted, its something he just did,
she said. The good Lord gives you what you
need.
I've been blessed to own these. she
went on. We are just caretakers in any case,
people die, the cars will last forever.
Repeatedly, I told Linda my readers
would want to know if she drove the Vette as
it was designedthe speedometer goes to
120. Finally, she curled up the corners of her
mouth.
I do, but don't tell any police officers,
please, she relented.
Go, Granny, go, commented her hus-
band.
Crusing Co-Pilots
Women often play supporting or principal roles in a
hobby that excites both spouses.
{ BY MICKEY BRANDT }
Bill and Linda Smith have different tastes in
cars, but have shared a passion for them,
and for each other, for 50 years. She is
with her 1961 Corvette, he with his 1929
Cord. All nine of their cars have names. The
Vette is Rhett, because it was bought in the
South; The Cord is Fred, because he owned
it in the past. PHOTOS: MICKEY BRANDT

ROBIN AND STU IN THE PINK
Their son Paul was a college freshman.
His first reaction was, Will I be able to go
back?
Prompting the question was his parents
2010 purchase of a beautiful 1957 pink
Thunderbird convertible, Robin Cohens
dream car.
The experience at Coopers Classic cars
in Greenwich Village was dreamlike. My
husband Stu told him the exact price we
were offering, hed done a lot of research,
Robin said. We were shocked when we left
New York City, realizing wed be going back
in a few days to pick it up.
When I started looking, I recalled the
car from American Graffiti, and I knew I
didnt want white or black, Robin noted.
Plus, pink is significant because Im a
breast cancer survivor.
Robin got the original dealers sticker
with her prize, which adds value. She told
me it also came with two trophies in the
trunk. She has used the Internet to trace its
lineage back decades and has been in con-
tact with some of the previous owners.
One couple sent us photos of their
daughter in it at her wedding, Robin said.
She loves the convertible experience as
she and Stu drive to car shows or just take a
sunny day whirl around the Jersey shore.
Once in a while, though, she has been
reminded its a vehicle with a removable top.
There were one or two times the
weather got bad and I just had to floor it
home, she laughed.
At shows as well as just on the open
road, Robin is warmed by the attention her
T-bird gets, mostly from women. And the
girls, the little girls, they just love it, she
said.
Stu has a 1928 Packard and a 1930
Hudson, both sparkling antiques. A 1963
Lincoln and 1979 Fiat Spider complete the
Cohen stock. The Lincoln was the first car
Stu restored; it had belonged to his grandfa-
ther.
Robin will retire from her teaching
career in two years. She has a plan. Maybe
its a hope, maybe a whim.
I want to do Route 66 in it, she said.
That would be a fun trip.

ANTOINETTE AND HARRY
AS CO-PILOTS
Antoinette and Harry Gale never
dreamed that they would have a convertible,
in their case, a 1964 Ford Fairlane, bought
many years ago.
The Fairlane is mine and Harrys car is
the 1952 Ford, but we share them, really, its
a 50-50 deal, Antoinette said. He takes
good care of it, its something we both
enjoy.
They are co-pilots and seem comfortable
at their controls.
She said that growing up she loved pretty
cars, especially convertibles. Her Dad had a
truck that was an indelible icon of her
childhood. It had his name on it, required
because of its size.
He let me take it out, but you don't want
to be driving as a teen with your dads name
on your truck, she said. Theyd tell him
the next day they saw the truck going faster
than usual last night; they could track any-
thing I did.
Talkative and extraordinarily optimistic
with a broad laugh, Antoinette has stories,
many stories.

AREA CAR CLUBS
South Jersey Mustang
Club
South Jersey Mustang
Club, sponsor on the Cruise
Down Memory Lane, cele-
brated its 35th anniversary
this year.
It's based in southern
New Jersey and consists of
a group of enthusiasts who
meet to show their cars and
support the preservation of Ford's
pony car. As a regional chapter of the
Mustang Club of America founded in
1979, it has members who own both
classic and late-model Mustangs in
addition to other noteworthy Ford
products.
It was founded by first president
Rich Riley and his wife Marge at their
Vineland home in 1979, with 10 mem-
bers attending a brief meeting in their
driveway. It received its charter from
the Mustang Club of America on
November 2, 1980. Five of the original
charter members are still active with
the club today. Although Rich and
Marge have moved to North Carolina,
they remain members.
As membership accelerated, the
club moved its meetings to the base-
ment of the original Main Road Fire
Hall and now have moved to the new
hall on the same spot.
The meetings are monthly, on the
first Thursday, excluding December, at
8 p.m., at the fire hall at Oak and
Main roads.
SJ Mustang raised money for All
They Need is Love animal rescue at
the All-Mustang ACE Ford Show on
May 17. Their "Midsummer's Night
Cruise in Richland on June 28, will
raise funds for the Memorial Home in
Vineland. The 34th Annual Mustang
and Ford Show at Holman Ford on
September 7 will raise money for the
Juvenile Diabetes Research Fund,
which the club has supported for
years. They also have donated to the
Ronald McDonald House in Camden
and collect soda can tabs at monthly
meetings for it also.
The club officers are: President,
Marvin Askins; Vice President, Harry
Wible; Treasurer, Nancy Nordberg;
Secretary, Terri Smith; National
Director, Frank Lokaj; Business
Coordinator, Gail Lokaj.
Call Marvin for information at 856-
697-6306 or email marvin350@hot-
mail.com. Marvin Askins
PERSONAL REFLECTION:
This is my fourth year working with
the South Jersey Mustang Club on
Cruise Down Memory Lane. I've been
into cars since I was a little girl thanks
to my father who always had a big V8
he would work on himself. I loved the
sound the engine made when he
would rev it up and I have never
stopped loving that sound. This is why
I love working and enjoying the CDML.
The cars that come out to participate
make me think back to those times
when my dad and I would work on his
cars. Well, I would just hold the flash-
light but as I watched, I learned. When
the sun goes down on Landis Avenue
and all the engines start revving as
they cruise up and down the Avenue,
the memories it brings back of times
with my father are the best. This is
such a positive event that brings all
the people of Vineland together since
just about everyone loves to see the
great cars out on the Avenue.
S.J. Mustang Club Secretary
Terri Smith
My grandson Robbie, whos now 18, was
a small boy when Harry took him for his
first ride in the Fairlane. He said, It was
great, Pop-Pop, but it got a little cold.
My Aunt Stacy, bless her soul, kept ask-
ing if she could ride in the convertible. She
was 70 years old, so I was just cruising. It
wasnt long before she asked, Could you
pick it up a little?
So, women share the adventure and
achievement of this popular and sometimes
poignant hobby. Their stories are more
nuanced than carburetor and clutch, and
perhaps less boastful than power and
provenance. They garner their own tro-
phies, real and symbolic, and enjoy a more
shared relationship than they would with-
out the chrome and the camaraderie. I

AREA CAR CLUBS
Nostalgia Knights
The Nostalgia Knights Classic Car
Club is based on the theory "Let's
Have Fun." This is the most important
aspect of the organization, according
to its leaders. Too many times clubs
lose track of what a club is for.
Money, politics and greed get in the
way, they say. Keeping the idea of
"Let's Have Fun" alive, their goal is not
to be the biggest club around, but the
most fun, friendly and unified.
The Nostalgia Knights is a benevo-
lent society and supports local and
national charities. As a condition of
membership, members have to repre-
sent the club through safe driving,
positive spirit of car enthusiasm, and
proper behavioral conduct in society.
There is no discrimination against
anyone based on age, race, religion,
sex or sexual preference. Members
cherish each other, not only in club-
affiliated events, but also in everyday
undertakings.
Club president Bill Nese said, We
don't have any competition here, none
of that jazz.
Nese is most proud of the two
annual shows his club holds at the
New Jersey Veterans Memorial Home
in Vineland, the club's principal char-
ity, which it has supported for more
than 20 years. Every summer
(August 24 this year), the Knights
team up with South Jersey Cruisers
and Cruisin' 92.1 WVLT radio for
Salute to Our Veterans, which draws
more than 300 cars to the North
West Boulevard grounds. The Legion
Riders, bringing as many as 200
motorcycles, often add a lot of excite-
ment by dropping by.
We started with probably 10 cars,
Nese said. Steve Tatz started it about
seven years ago.
The residents love it. There are
wheelchair races as part of the festivi-
ties and all participants get trophies,
which they often display in their
rooms.
They all relate to it, Nese said.
They say, oh, I had one of these.
The only show where the Knights
charge admission is Memories in the
Grove at the Vet home (September
28 this year) and it gets the proceeds.
The club supports Toys for Tots at
Christmastime. Members take several
pickup loads of playthings to St. John
of God Parish.
In a good year, we give a lot,
Nese said. We're not in it for the
money, we're in it to help people who
might need something.
Nese, by the way, owns a few mid-
1960s model Ford Fairlanes, a car
some perceive as not being a muscle
car. Well.
These are the quiet little ones that
often blow the doors off the Chevelles
and Camaros, he said.
Mickey Brandt
The 50 or so members of Nostalgia
Knights are generally known for their
antique cars. Here, club member Robin
Cohen of Vineland is with her husband
Stu's 1928 Packard. (They were at a
Roaring 20s event in Hammonton, by the
way.)
