MWRC Fall 2025 Conference

To be hosted by All Minnesota Blue Knights Chapters
(Rochester, MN)

September 4 - 7, 2025

This is the page where we will try to keep everyone informed about the upcoming conference.  Obviously a conference is complete without door prizes, so we will also be recognizing those who have helped us in this endeavor.

Our conference location is the 

Best Western Rochester Hotel Mayo Clinic Area/St. Mary's

Gator Garb is a Twin Cities business that often works behind the scenes to help promote businesses as their name implies.  They have a a young lady named Pam D.  Pam comes from a Law Enforcement and US Military family.  She will proudly tell you stories of her relatives and their devotion to god and country!  

She has already helped us by finding a suitable location for our conference in Rochester, MN.  She said she isn't done because she wants the event to be a HUGE success!  

They are excited to know that they will have a parking lot full of motorcycles which will certainly draw attention.  Knowing that their will be lots of law enforcement on site, we wouldn't be suprised to see many local Peace Officers, Deputies, Ambulances, Troopers and alphabet agency types show up to see what all the excitement is about!

During our last conference in Eagan, MN, the Eagan Police Department stopped by regularly to look at motorcycles, visit, shop our vendors and just enjoy a few minutes outside of their squad.  

Finally, it should be noted that the Eagan P.D. helped control the traffic as 100 motorcycles left the hotel and were escorted onto the Highway.  The group was going to the Minnesota Law Enforcement Memorial and Eagan P.D. made sure everyone got onto the highway safely.  It was quite an impressive sight!

If you are reading this, you probably have a friend, family member, loved one, neighbor, etc. that is in the field of Public Safety as well as a motorcycle enthuasist.  Remind them to Wear Their Vests!  Don't leave them on the front seat of the car until they are really needed.  Yes they are hot.  Yes they are warm, but it's easier to wash off sweat at the end of the shift then a bullet.  Sure we may smell a little, but I promise you a hug from a loved one saying thanks for wearing your vest but you stink is much better than the alternative.

  Drivers and Passengers

PLEASE remember to keep your eyes open for us. We drive squads, rescue rigs, motors and ambulances.  We do it fast and precise.  We are more fun to watch than NASCAR since we don't make just left turns.  Don't try capturing video of us while you are driving.  Yes the lights on the rigs are pretty, but pay attention to your driving.  Give us extra room when you pass us while we are helping others.  We appreciate all the distance between us on foot and you in your vehicles.

If you see our lights on or hear our sirens, please get out of the way as quickly as possible.  We are on a mission to help! Pull over to the right shoulder and give us the right of way. We want to get to the scene as quickly as possible and help as many as possible.  

Make sure to keep your eyes open after the first emergency vehicle passes by.  We are like deer, if you see one, you will proably see many more coming.

Finally, If you want to see the pretty lights up close stop by your local public safety agency and ask to see them. Bring your children, grand children, neices, nephews, etc.  Let them meet some real heroes; the men and women of Emergency Services.
