Five spirited girls, fresh from a summer adventure at Wickeecheokee Farm, gather in the city to recount their camp experiences and plot the next chapter of their Woodcraft tribe. Their guide, Miss Miller, a lively physical‑culture teacher, welcomes them for tea and a council where they’ll discuss a winter camp and the possibility of admitting new members. Between jokes, sketches, and plans for a “Winter Camp Charter,” the girls’ excitement bubbles as they prepare to share their stories with fellow city‑bound Woodcraft enthusiasts.
Adjusting to the bustle of urban life proves a fresh challenge, and the girls quickly turn their outdoor know‑how toward city problems. From improvising ways to keep rooms cool to devising a safe indoor “council fire,” they discover that the spirit of the woods can thrive amid skyscrapers and sidewalks. Their camaraderie, creativity, and love of nature invite listeners into a world where adventure and friendship blossom, even in the heart of the city.
