Master Wagon Master Ole Mickeee has announced the
Northeast Truck Campers Jamborees for 2026.
Why should we attend a Jamboree?
Jamborees are social and educational events
designed to bring together truck campers from
New England, neighboring states, and Canada.
The Jamborees offer an inclusive environment, welcoming participants with varying levels of expertise — from novices to veterans and everyone in between. Whether you are new to truck camping or have years of experience, you will find activities and discussions suited to your interests
and skill level.
Social Activities
Participants can look forward to a myriad of
social activities, including:
• Group meals and cookouts
• Campfire gatherings
• Outdoor games and sports
• Guided nature walks and hikes
Educational Sessions
The Jamborees also feature educational sessions that cover a wide range of topics relevant to truck camping.
Networking Opportunities
One key benefit of the Jamborees is the opportunity to network with fellow truck campers. Attendees can share experiences, exchange tips, and build lasting friendships.
At jamborees, friendships are renewed,
and new ones are made.
Where truck camping is promoted,
and stories of travel experiences
are shared and exchanged over coffee,
hot chocolate with marshmallows,
and a hot dog around a campfire.
You might even learn about places to
add to your family’s bucket list.

making the journey.
These are dry camping events (AKA boondocking).
