A little about us...


Chapter PA"T" is one of 24 chapters within the District of Pennsylvania and a member of the Northeast Region (B), which is made of of 11 Districts:  Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine.
 
Our Chapter is located in the beautiful Laurel Mountains, also known as the Roof Garden of Pennsylvania. There are some of the best roads for motorcycle riding, fantastic restaurants and ice cream stands for your enjoyment throughout the area. Our Chapter has been Chartered since October 6, 1991 and we are proud to say that we still have several Charter Members still attending our gatherings. Chapter PA"T"  is proud of its members and accomplishments that they have made throughout the years. The Chapter has been steadily growing because the secret has been let out that our membership consists of some of the greatest people in both Somerset and Cambria Counties. Our success is all due to the result of the memberships dedication, hard work and public relations.

Located within a short driving distance of our Chapter are two very important Memorials. One is the Flight 93 Memorial where the Flight went down on 911, it is located right outside of Shanksville, PA and the other Memorial is the Quecreek Mine Rescue Site where nine members were trapped inside the deep mine and all nine survived. The Rescue Site is also known as the "Nine for Nine" Memorial. The Memorial is located on Route 985, Sipesville, PA.
