Putting this out as a feeler to see who might be interested. We went in June 2025 and made a weekend of it. Biked, Hotel with a pool, dinner, breweries, etc. was Fun! It was pretty Hot on the ship, so Oct will be cooler but likely no Hotel Pool. We also did a quick ship tour before the event. The ticket includes a full tour but not the same day (it says) so I may want to do that on Sunday or Monday morning. Tell me your thoughts, could make it a 3 or 4 day weekend and go into Philly for something too.
There is also an [Adult Only Overnight](https://battleshipnewjersey.org/event/adults-only-overnight-encampment/) that night, for the adventurous. Guests will experience sleeping in real Navy bunks, dinner and breakfast served right from the chow line, and the chance to experience Battleship New Jersey just as the crew once did in this unforgettable, all-inclusive overnight adventure.
Overnight Encampments is an $85 donation per person. Sign up today!
