“Many of our food trucks started as a tent, moved up to a food truck and one day have the vision of owning a brick and mortar storefront,” said Shirley Brown, director of Clarksville Food Trucks. “Clarksvillians have been asking for awhile now for us to host a food truck round-up.  Plus there is nothing better than food truck food.”

Those who attend are encouraged to bring a lawn chair and practice social distancing guidelines.
