The PATC Truck Camper Gathering is back for its fourth year. From breakfast and a fish fry to the beer and soda swap, Left Center Right, food trucks, and group campfires, another fun weekend with fellow truck campers is just around the corner. Make your reservations now!
The fourth annual PATC Truck Camper Gathering is set for September 17 – 20, 2026, at Squarewood Acres Campground in Trout Run, Pennsylvania.
Frank Mertes sent us the details for this year’s gathering, and PATC is getting ready to welcome new truck campers and catch up with old friends for another weekend of food, games, campfires, and plenty of truck camper camaraderie.
The weekend kicks off Thursday with registration beginning at 6 p.m. at the pavilion. You can pay the $30 per-person rally fee at the pavilion upon arrival; it helps cover rally expenses and door prizes. This fee is separate from the cost of your campsite, which must be reserved directly with Squarewood Acres Campground.

Throughout the weekend, attendees can gather around group campfires and try their luck at another round of the famous Left Center Right dice game. PATC is also working on a lineup of door prizes to add to the fun.
Another returning favorite is the Beer and Soda Swap. Have a favorite local beverage? Bring a couple to share and swap with other attendees. After plenty of fun and laughs last year, the swap is back for another round.
Saturday night, Cookin’ From the Hart food truck returns with a selection of dinner options. Please note that food from the truck is not included in the rally registration fee.
Whether you’ve attended before or are thinking about joining PATC for the first time, now is the time to reserve your campsite.
