  • 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.

    100 Facts About Scouting 1. Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon, is an Eagle Scout. When he said, “The Eagle has landed,” he wasn’t kidding.
