Chapters

We formed the 1st Chapter of Brother's Keepers Motorcycle Club in Shreveport, Louisiana U.S.A. in 2003.  Through a lot of research into other firefighter motorcycle clubs, we could not find a club that met the needs of all of us.  So we sat down and created our own club, our own by-laws and met with other motorcycle clubs in the area. Our thing was, we wanted to ride and help give back to our communities but at the same time, having fun doing so.  We have firefighters from all over the Bossier Parish, Caddo Parish, and Desoto Parish areas. Our monthly meeting is held on the 3rd Monday of the month 6:00 PM at Podnah's BBQ - 9030 Mansfield Road, Shreveport, LA.
