  • Where to Go Camping
    There was a statement in an older version of the Boy Scout Handbook that said: “Have you ever dreamed of hiking the wilderness trails that were worn down under moccasins hundreds of years ago? Do you hear in your imagination the almost soundless dip, dip of Indian canoe paddles or the ring of the axe of an early pioneer hewing a home out of the American wilderness? Have you followed with you mind’s eye the covered wagon on the trek across our continent? Yes, it’s fun to be a Boy Scout! It’s fun to go hiking and camping with your best friends…..to swim, to dive, to paddle a canoe, to wield the axe…..to follow in the footsteps of the pioneers who led the way through the wilderness…..to stare into the glowing embers of the campfire and dream of the wonders of the lift that is in store for you…” This is the heart of Scouting, but we don’t always know the best place to go on these outings. How better can the Order of the Arrow fulfill a part of their responsibility of service to others than to make this camping guide available? A great guide to the best camping, boating, hiking and sightseeing both in and out of the Council, but, of course, one of the best places to do real camping is at one of the Council’s reservations. Richard A. Henson or Rodney Scout Reservation, both long term camping during the summer months, or weekends through the year, affords a maximum of program.

  • Let's Go Camping Guide
    Let’s Go Camping Guide compiled by Amangamek-Wipit Lodge 470 Order of the Arrow National Capital Area Council May 2002 To: All NCAC Unit Leaders From: Amangamek-Wipit Camping Committee Subject: LET'S GO CAMPING GUIDE Date: May 2002 Greetings! This is your copy of the annual Let's Go Camping Guide. The National Capital Area Council Order of the Arrow Amangamek-Wipit Lodge updates this guide annually. This guide is intended to support the unit camping program by providing leaders with a directory of nearby campgrounds. The guide is organized into three sections. Section I lists public campgrounds in Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Virginia. Section II covers campgrounds administered by the Boy Scouts of America in Maryland, North Carolina, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and West Virginia. Section III provides a place for leaders to record their favorite campgrounds for future reference. Many people have provided listings to this year's edition of the guide and we are grateful to all who have contributed. However, this guide is far from a complete listing of the camping resources available to NCAC units. If you would like to add a listing or if you discover a listing in need of correction please contact Philip Caridi at your convenience at [email protected]. Together we can make next year's guide even more useful.

By providing sustained funding for these critical infrastructure needs, we will help strengthen Delaware’s economy, while we improve the health of our environment. Through the leadership of Governor John Carney and the support of the Delaware General Assembly, we have focused on continuing investment in the environmental infrastructure that supports tourism, recreation, and public health and safety. By purifying air and water, mitigating fl ooding, and supporting diverse species, as well as providing recreational amenities, we generate millions of dollars in economic value. Outdoor recreation options, such as biking and walking trails, can help reduce health care costs as Delawareans adopt healthier lifestyles – and more than 60 percent of our residents now participate in outdoor recreation. Visitors come to Delaware to experience our pristine beaches, navigable waterways, rustic landscapes, world-class birding, hunting, fi shing, biking, and hiking. Clean air and water and memorable recreational experiences are vital to attracting visitors and new companies, as well as retaining businesses and their top talent.
