    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.

    The Raven JOURNAL OF THE VIRGINIA SOCIETY OF ORNITHOLOGY Volume 81 Number 1 2010 The Virginia Society of Ornithology, Inc. exists to encourage the systematic study of birds in Virginia, to stimulate interest in birds, and to assist the conservation of wildlife and other natural resources. All persons interested in those objectives are welcome as members. Present membership includes every level of interest, from professional scientific ornithologists to enthusiastic amateurs. Activities undertaken by the Society include the following: 1. An annual meeting (usually in the spring), held in a different part of the state each year, featuring talks on ornithological subjects and field trips to nearby areas. 2. Other forays or field trips lasting a day or more and scheduled throughout the year so as to include all seasons and to cover the major physiographic regions of the state. 3. A journal, The Raven, published twice yearly, containing articles relevant to Virginia ornithology as well as news of the activities of the Society and its chapters. 4. A newsletter, the VSO Newsletter, published quarterly, containing current news items of interest to members and information about upcoming events and pertinent conservation issues. 5. Study projects (nesting studies, winter bird population surveys, etc.) aimed at making genuine contributions to ornithological knowledge. In addition, some local chapters of the Society conduct their own programs of meetings, field trips and other projects. Those wishing to participate in any of the above activities, or to cooperate in advancing the objectives of the Society, are cordially invited to join and should contact the Membership Secretary.
