The Truck Convoy for Special Olympics is an annual event which unites Law Enforcement and the Transportation Industry to raise funds for Special Olympics athletes. 2018 marks the 17th anniversary of the inception of the event. Since it began in 2001, more than 15,000 trucks – big rigs to dump trucks – have traversed more than 8,000 km.

In Calgary, 1,700 Special Olympics athletes will benefit, as funds raised will support sports and programs in the area.

Registration begins at 8:00 am.  Join us for breakfast from 8am until 9:45 am. The Driver’s meeting is at 9:45 am, and the Convoy will begin at 10:00 am from the Rosenau Terminal at 234180 Wrangler Rd SE in Rocky View.

After the convoy, a celebratory BBQ and awards ceremony will be held back at the Rosenau Terminal.

There will be live entertainment and a kid’s activity centre.

Vehicle registration is $100.  Registration fees include Breakfast, BBQ lunch, Truck Convoy tshirt, and a Truck Convoy travel mug.  Drivers that raise over $500 also receive a Truck Convoy pocket knife, and those that raise over $1000 receive a Truck Convoy cooler.
