About me:
My name is Billy Grogan. I am a Deputy Chief with the Marietta Police Department here in Georgia. I am also the Chairman of the 2007 World's Largest Truck Convoy Committee here in Georgia. This is a fundraising event for Special Olympics Georgia. The event is scheduled for September 15, 2007 and is also happening at the same time in many other states.
WHAT IS THE WORLD'S LARGEST TRUCK CONVOY?
The Truck Convoy® is a celebration of the trucking industry and its support of Special Olympics. It is a unique one-day celebration in which law enforcement makes special dispensation and escorts a convoy of trucks up to 30 miles through their town.
Truckers meet at a staging location and are escorted in convoy to a predetermined destination, such as a raceway, fairgrounds or truck stop, where they are welcomed by the Special Olympics community - athletes, families, friends, colleagues, law enforcement officers, and the organizations, companies and agencies that make up the trucking industry. A celebration - a picnic, barbeque, awards ceremony, etc. is held to recognize participating truckers and the support of the trucking industry. Whatever form the celebration takes, the message is the same: “Thank you for your support of Special Olympics athletes and for keeping our communities moving!”
Inspired by the powerful impact Special Olympics had on his life through his participation in the Law Enforcement Torch Run®, combined with his family’s involvement with the trucking industry, Norm Schneiderhan, a Corporal with the Orange County Sheriff’s Department, created the Truck Convoy, a one-day celebration of the trucking industry to help raise awareness and funds for Special Olympics.
