The 2022 Truck Convoy, hosting over 200 trucks, marked the 20th anniversary of the event in Delaware.

Nationally, the Truck Convoy was founded in Florida in 2001 by Norm Schneiderhan, with the Orange County Sheriff’s Dept. Schneiderhan was inspired by the powerful impact of the Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics.
