Description

A bright April afternoon in the quiet town of Woodford finds Billy Webster strolling past the familiar cottages of his youth, his thoughts heavy with unresolved plans. He runs into Meg Everett, a former Camp Fire Girl whose sunny disposition still lights the streets, and the two exchange a mix of teasing and concern that hints at deeper ties to the people they left behind. Their conversation quickly turns to the changing lives of the Sunrise Hill members, now young women navigating the expectations of family and society.

Meanwhile, the restless Polly O'Neill dreams of joining the glamorous actress Miss Adams on a European tour, a prospect fiercely opposed by her guardian, Mrs. Wharton. As gossip swirls about Polly’s forbidden ambitions, Meg wrestles with her own longing for adventure and the pull of familiar responsibilities. The story captures the delicate balance between loyalty to home and the lure of distant horizons, inviting listeners to step into a world where friendship, love, and the promise of new experiences intertwine.
