Welcome! You
are at the opening page to the Southern Regional Conference
(SRC) of the Blue Knights®
International Law Enforcement Motorcycle Club, Inc. The SRC
was organized for the purpose of promoting the
Blue Knights®
International, Inc.,
Law Enforcement Motorcycle Club, and for fostering closer
co-operation and support among the Chapters within the
Geographical Conference area.
The Blue Knights®
were founded in the Spring of
1974 by several law enforcement officers* from the Bangor, Maine
(USA) area who met and formed a small, local motorcycle club. The Blue Knight Founding Fathers are: Joel Rudom,
Bill Robinson, Doug Miner, Ed Gallant, Mike Hall, Chuck Gesner,
Wayne Labree, Chuck Shuman.
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. The rest, as they say, is history.
As of
December 2006,
there are over
19,850
members in the Blue Knights®,
Inc. spread out
in 586 chapters
in 28 different countries. Besides the USA, countries
represented by members are: Canada, Austria, France, Luxembourg,
Belgium, Netherlands, Switzerland, Germany, Norway, Poland,
Sweden, Italy, Croatia, Wales, England, Scotland, Finland,
Denmark, Slovenia, Puerto Rico, Ireland, Australia, Turkey, Abu
Dhabi, Northern Ireland, Iceland, New Zealand and pending in
Japan!
In the SRC there are six states
and one
protectorate: Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi,
South Carolina, and Puerto Rico. The SRC has 2,524 members in 72 chapters. Take
a look at our area maps section for

Blue Knights®
have donated to numerous charities, contributing time, goods,

recorded, the Blue Knights have been responsible for donating
over 156,993
hours of volunteer time, $524,401.37 of goods and $8,543,533.60(USD)
