Description |
Preparations for the camp at Dunham Park are followed by footage of scouts boarding buses and arriving at the site. Views of various camp activities including the camp fire, milk delivery, refuse disposal and scout and guide shop are seen, and on Sunday a group of VIPs - including the exiled Crown Prince of Ethiopia, Asfa Wossen - arrive for a church service. Different scout troops participate in a stage show - a cowboy band, morris dancing, gymnastic display and fencing demonstration are seen. The film ends with views of the camp being cleared up and the empty site after the scouts have left. |
