Firefighters from Waterford responded late Tuesday afternoon to a structure fire at a private camp on Little Moose Pond off Ben Hale Road. Two investigators with the State Fire Marshal’s Office were on the scene Tuesday night and the cause of the fire remains under investigation. The blaze was reported by a resident across the pond at about 5:20 p.m. and the camp — located down a steep gravel road — was fully engulfed when crews arrived. According to Assistant Chief Bill Haynes with Waterford Fire Department, the camp belongs to local resident Winfield Kimball and his adult children Kyle Kimball and Kelly Parrott-Kimball.
