Description du film :

»Scout Camp« is a family comedy about the traditions and antics a Boy Scout troop experiences during a week at camp. When the Fire Dragon patrol and their supportive Scout Master, Kerry, head to prestigious Camp Rakhouta, they expect to have the time of their lives. However, when the legendary spirit stick goes missing, the camp’s entire livelihood is threatened. Now, the Fire Dragons, led by York Hayes, must do whatever it takes to find the stick, return it, and restore the legacy of the camp.
Written and directed by Garrett Batty, »Scout Camp« is a humorous movie full of truths about a time-honored tradition.

Sixteen year old York Hayes, the leader of the Fire Dragons scout troop, returns to Camp Rakhouta for his last week long scout camp. York is determined to make this last one the best. Unfortunately, from the beginning things do not go as planned for York as he is forced to spend the rest of the week dealing with the shortcomings, problems, and antics of his inexperienced troop members. Things are not helped by the appearance at Camp Rakhouta once again of his rival Mitch Jonas, the leader of the record holding Horned Owls scout troop.
Shortly after arriving late to Camp Rakhouta, Fire Dragon troop member and scout camp first timer Reggie unknowingly takes the Spirit Stick during a stick fight with fellow troop members Clint and A.J. from its hollowed location outside of the Camp Rakhouta Trading Post. The Spirit Stick has been handed down from generation to generation at Camp Rakhouta, and represents to all scouts the »legacy« of Camp Rakhouta. When Reggie goes to return it, he accidently tosses it into a tree when he hears scouts approaching. Reggie retrieves York to help him, but when they return to the spot, the Spirit Stick is missing, and the adventure to find the Spirit Stick begins.
The Fire Dragons search for the Spirit Stick leads to hilarious and memorable experiences including the final confrontation with Mitch and the Horned Owls in the »Battle of the K.Y.B.O.«. With hilarious and quirky instructors and leaders, Scout Camp is a reminder of the good feelings and memories of going to scout camp as we watch and enjoy the Fire Dragons growing together as a troop and learning something about themselves along the way.
