This is a film of the St Thomas’ Scout Group from the Groves area of York on their annual summer camp to Braithwaite Hall, East Witton. Title – Summer Camp 1967: Braithwaite Hall, East Witton The Scouts, one carrying a guitar, board a coach, and they set off. They arrive at a campsite near woods, cook some bacon and sausages, and eat. A general Camp scene. After washing the dishes, they put out their kit for inspection outside their tents and stand to attention next to it. They make a circle around a flag pole for flag break, and they are each handed a pennant. They make camp ovens by digging a hole in the ground and use a biscuit tin to make it into an oven with a chimney. They are next seen swimming in a river and swinging on a rope they have put over the river. They also go out in canoes and some do a capsize drill. Having dried themselves they cook over an open fire. The dinner, consisting of mash, greens and sausages, is dished out. They take the joint out of the home-made oven. Winning patrols are awarded decorated tent pegs at the end of camp, as they stand around the flag pole. Title – The End
