The crowds are growing in Atlantic Beach for the annual Memorial Day Bike Fest which starts Friday.
As more bikers make their way onto the Grand Strand, more law enforcement officials will do the same.
Officers with the Horry County Sheriff's Office, Horry County Police, and first responders with Horry County Fire Rescue have started setting up in Atlantic Beach.
Beginning Friday, 120 South Carolina Highway Patrol troopers will also be in the town.
