Chapter XXVII

Welcome to the Blue Knights OH XXVII Website.

      In the Spring of 1974, several law enforcement officers from the Bangor, Maine (USA) area met and formed a small, local motorcycle club. Since that time it has grown to become an International organization. The rest, as they say, is history. Today members represent the United States, Canada, Australia, France, Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, Switzerland, England, Austria, Norway, Sweden, and Poland.
 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.

     As of January 1, 2008, we have 586 chapters and almost 20,000 members in 28 countries. 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., Concerns of Police Survivors as well as local charities and families who have had a catastrophic development in their lives.

     The Blue Knights have donated to numerous charities; contributing time in the amount of $3,576,620 (178,831 man hours @ $20 per hour), goods with an estimated value of $592,935.49 and $5,865,257.07 in cash for a total of $10,034,812.56 (USD). 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.

Among the Blue Knights^® members,
        "There are no strangers, only friends we haven't met yet."
