Preview: Hear it

LOST!Ziggy and his Black Dinosaur pals are excited about their overnight camping trip to Caesars Creek State Park it was named after an exslave who later became a Shawnee chief! Their camping counselor is descended from Caesar, and she fills the campers imaginations with intriguing but sometimes spooky stories about her ancestor and Shawnee legends and traditions.So when Ziggy and his friends discover an old canoe in some bushes by the lake, they decide to sneak outside at night and test their courage like Shawnee youth in their manhood ceremonies.

Or the ancient spirits of their counseors tales?
