Blue Knights International Club
Website
The BLUE KNIGHTS® is a non-profit fraternal
organization consisting of active and retired law enforcement men & women who
enjoy riding motorcycles.
In the Spring of 1974, several law
enforcement officers* from the Bangor, Maine (USA) area met and and formed a
small, local motorcycle club. The rest, as they say, is history.
Soon,
Blue Knight chapters were being formed in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and
beyond. With the addition of Canada, and later Australia, the Blue Knights
became an international organization.
*Our Founding Fathers are: Joel
Rudom, Bill Robinson, Doug Miner, Ed Gallant, Mike Hall, Chuck Gesner, Wayne
Labree, Chuck Shuman
According to the
By-Laws, our purposes and goals are to:
1. Provide for the mutual
assistance, enjoyment, entertainment, education, physical, mental and
social benefit of its members and the general public.
2. To promote and
advance the sport of motorcycling and the safety of motorcycling.
3. To
serve the interests of motorcycle owners and users.
4. To promote by example
and any other acceptable means, safe use, operation and enjoyment of
motorcycles.
5. To develop a fraternal spirit between law enforcement
personnel and the general public.
Many Blue Knights work long and hard
to raise money for various charities. Especially near to our hearts is
helping children. Make-a-Wish Foundation, Toys for Tots, D.A.R.E.,
and Concerns of Police Survivors are some examples of our favorites.
We're the good
guys!
The Blue Knights is a family fraternity. Spouses and children often accompany our members to the various rides and functions. When travelling, local members can provide assistance, directions and sometimes a place to stay. We are truly a family.
