TEAR JERKERS was formed in late 1997 by Todd Brunengraber with assistance from Grant and Lisa Whipp of Tales & Trails/Teardrop Times. Our group encourages and supports membership in TEARDROP TIMES, the international fellowship of Teardrop Trailers. Our members include owners, home builders, manufacturers, restorers, parts suppliers and creative craftsmen that build their own from scratch. We enjoy not only our small vintage trailers but also, vintage vehicles to tow them with. TEAR JERKERS started out on the East Coast of the U.S. but, has expanded to include members from Great Britain, Australia, New Zealand, Finland, Sweden, Canada, and The Netherlands.

TEAR JERKERS is an informal group of people who share their love of Teardrop and small Travel Trailers through discussions & Gatherings. "If you enjoy the great outdoors and fellowship with others, our campsite will always be open." One does not have to be a member to attend our Gatherings.

Let us make no mistake, TearJerkers does "Group Camping". Our gatherings are Social Events with lots of interaction and activities.

Remember: ALL are Welcome.

If Camping in Solitude is what your looking for, Maybe a TearJerkers Gathering is not for you.


If you are interested in becoming a member of our group, are planning to buy, restore, or build your own teardrop trailer; we can be an excellent resource for locating suppliers, retailers, or just information on how to do build it right. Our online forum at TEARJERKERS.NET is where we pool our resources, share pictures and coordinate gatherings around the country.
