  • 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. Yours in Scouting and Cheerful Service, Chuck Reynolds Lodge Chief Section I: Public Sites Section II: Boys Scouts of America Campgrounds Section III: Personal Favorites Section IV: Baloo Sites Section I: Public Campgrounds National Capital Area Council Let's Go Camping Guide Order of the Arrow May 2002 Amangamek-Wipit, Lodge 470 ST Camp Season Type Capacity Restricts Fires Toilets/Showers Activities/Features Reservations Directions DE Assawoman Wildlife Area flies/mosquitos 20 Take I 495 to Rte 50; 50 E to very bad in late Ocean City; take Rte 1 N to spring, summer, Fenwick Island; DE Rte 54 W early fall year to county Road 381; turn right and follow signs.

  • STONEWALL JACKSON in FAYETTE COUNTY
    STONEWALL JACKSON in FAYETTE COUNTY Larry Spurgeon1 (2019) ***** … the history of Jackson’s boyhood has become “an oft told tale,” so much so that one’s natural inclination is to pass over this period in silence. Yet under the circumstances this should not be done, for it is due Jackson’s memory, as well as his admirers, that the facts, as far as known, of that part of his life be at least accurately if but briefly narrated. Thomas Jackson Arnold2 __________ Thomas Jonathan “Stonewall” Jackson is one of the most iconic figures in American history. While most research has understandably focused on the Civil War, his early life in western Virginia, now West Virginia, has been the subject of some fascination. We are drawn to stories about someone who rises from humble circumstances to the pinnacle of success. A consensus narrative about his childhood evolved over time, an “oft told tale,” to be sure, but one that has gaps, errors, and even myths. An excerpt from the historical marker at Westlake Cemetery in Ansted, Fayette County, West Virginia, where Jackson’s mother Julia is buried, is a good example: On November 4, 1830, Julia Jackson married Blake G. Woodson, a man fifteen years her senior, who in 1831 became the court clerk of newly created Fayette County. Mired in poverty despite his position, he resented his stepchildren. When Julia Woodson’s health began to fail in 1831, she sent her children to live with relatives, and Thomas J. Jackson moved to Jackson’s Mill in Lewis County. He returned here once, in autumn 1831, to see his mother shortly before she died.
