Charlie Brown and the gang (even Snoopy and Woodstock) go to summer camp. Charlie Brown misses the bus and he gets a ride with Snoopy on his motorcycle. He accidentally crashes into a group of bullies and their pet, a vicious cat, who cheat in order to win every camp sporting event and say they are number one.
The main focus is a raft race where the bullies create a high-tech raft (which occasionally stalls out) and sabotage the rafts of the other teams. They eliminate all but Charlie Brown and Peppermint Patty's groups. The bullies set the others on detours using signs saying "This way, kid!" and "Short cut" and causing them to go off course. However, all three collide and pile near the end. Even Snoopy sinks. At the end, Woodstock makes an improvised raft out of sticks and a leaf and wins the race.
At the end, the group vows revenge next year, but they are too afraid (even the cat) to do so. Finally, the bus home leaves Charlie Brown behind again and he hitches a ride on Snoopy's motorcycle again.
