LITTLE LAKE -- Roughly 800 motorcycles and their owners packed the Little Lake American Legion Post area on Saturday, and they did it for a good cause.

The 26th annual Bike Show hosted by the Marquette Hog Chapter donates thousands of dollars each year to Bay Cliff Health Camp. The event has food, drinks, and entertainment for all riders.

But organizers say it's much more than just a good time.

"We like supporting Bay Cliff because it's just a good thing to do," said Joe Kerekes, a ticket chairman. "It's a good feeling; it's hard to describe. Once you can go and do something good for somebody else, especially kids with special needs, it's a good feeling inside."

Riders got in for only five dollars and one lucky winner left with a 2012 Harley Davidson motorcycle.
