Would you like to host an athlete during the convoy? To participate in the program you have to fill out and return the Class A form.  The deadline for participation in this program will be announced soon.

Please email this form to blevins@somo.org

We will coordinate a convoy that will start staging at 5:45 pm on Saturday, we will plan for a 6 pm convoy START time as we head north towards Joplin.  We will end up at Mercy Park (26^th & Maiden Lane St) Joplin, and we will ‘take over’ several city blocks as we park for the street party, light show and street fair!

Due to space limitations in the area, and in the interest of making room for as many convoy trucks as possible-we will be limited to Bobtails only-no trailers in the convoy. (Thank You for your understanding.)

There will be food vendors & music! All drivers need to be in their trucks and ready to leave the area at 10:30, to make the trip back home or back to 4 State Trucks.

We encourage all trucks to monitor CB channel 33 on Saturday evening for smoother staging, coordination and faster re-parking. This is our best method to orchestrate the convoy and we want everyone to enjoy it and not be frustrated.

ALL trucks that want to join the convoy must register at the Special Olympics Tent directly in front of the CSM/4 State Trucks facility. Each truck is required to make a $100 donation to Special Olympics and will receive a ‘decal’ to put in your passenger windshield to show you are a CONVOY PARTICIPANT SUPPORTER! 

Fill out the Convoy Application, Or download and fill out the form.  You can then email for pre-registering, or bring with you day of the event…

The auction will take place Saturday at the Special Olympics tent at 4 PM where individuals fleets can submit their bid for the ‘top’ positions in the convoy.

We also need 40 drivers to submit their applications to let a Special Olympics athlete ride with them in their truck during the convoy.  Download the volunteer form and email it to fornelli@somo.org.

These 40 applications must be received before September 9th. We urge you to participate, as the folks TRULY LOOK FORWARD TO AND ENJOY riding in these trucks during the convoy! There is no extra cost to the driver for taking an athlete with them during the convoy! (Click Here For The Form)

Come out and enjoy the weekend with your friends from Chrome Shop Mafia and our neighbors from Special Olympics!
