1pm-2pm, contact Library for further information

Monthly Business Meeting has been changed for September from our usual meeting time due to the Labor Day holiday. 

Mansfield Reformatory Investigation, Mansfield, OH

Combined investigation with Tri-State Ghost Hunters.

After a day of festivities at Scarefest we will investigate Roh's Opera House in Cynthiana, KY from 11:30pm-4:00am.  Members should check email for investigation details.

Overnight investigation at private downtown business in Paris, KY.  Set-up starts at 10:30pm.  Bluegrass CSI investigators RSVP for investigation at www.bluegrasscsi.org/meetup, space is limited to 6 investigators.

Reminder to all who are attending Tuesday's meeting- please bring a pair of metal (non-coated) coat hangers if you have them (like those at the dry cleaner's).  We will be focusing on electromagnetic fields- what they are, the different types, how they are detected and what it all means to ghost hunters.  If you have your own EMF detector please also bring it along so we can ensure there are plenty for everyone to use.

Bluegrass C.S.I. investigated a location in December and took our new K-II Meter out for a spin. My opinion on this meter is still open for debate but I came across a blog entry from Grant Wilson's mySpace page that gives some good sound advice and lessons learned about using the device during an investigation. The entry is as follows:

What We Know About the K-II Meter

EMF detectors/testers are designed to measure EMF from electrical devices, these can range from microwave ovens, computers, televisions, and electrical wiring.  These are used in paranormal research, because it is believed that when a spirit tries to manifest itself it pulls Electromagnetic energy from the environment and this is detectable as an Electromagnetic Field.
