When I first started camping with Troop 15, we went almost exclusively to a campsite way in the back of the Saint Vincent de Paul camp property in Tiverton/Westport (I can never remember where the tow ...

I don't know where "The Flaming Hand" started, but it was one of our Troop favorites. It was always told at Abner's at the concrete foundation there. Most of the details are smothered by the cobwebs o ...
