The outing includes a paranormal investigation of the (rebuilt) Blennerhassett Mansion and the grounds. The blennerhassetts were friends of benedict arnold and planned to use their island home to launch a traitor army against the young government of the U.S.A. Big fail.

The families have all of the camping gear they'll need for good weather or bad. There will be a bonfire, restrooms, and limited electricity available. They camped on the Appalachian Trail last year, in a primitive cabin. They had planned to use their tents, but it rained almost the whole outing. Hope this time is better
