Mildred soon breaks this rule, after she attempts to lighten their loads. After a lot muttering and moaning, the group arrive at their destination, only to find they have been double-booked with a team of Canadian boy scouts. Much to Miss Hardbroom's displeasure, the two groups decide to "embrace the democracy of the great outdoors" and share the campsite. The girls are getting along extremely well with the boys and Miss Drill is getting on even better with their team leader, Serge Dubois. But Miss Hardbroom is convinced it will all end in disaster and resolves to have nothing more to do with the trip. The next day, Miss Drill and Serge decide to send the group on a treasure quest. Of course Ethel and Drusilla are on one team, and Mildred is on the other. Ethel lets her competitiveness get the better of her when the other team gets to the treasure map before her. She magics a few natural phenomenas, and when Mildred retaliates, things get completely out-of-hand. With a heavy blizzard raging, Drusilla sprains her ankle and it is Mildred who runs to save her. Miss Drill suspects magic and begs Miss Hardbroom to stop the blizzard, but it takes a bit of convincing, since she still miffed by the situation. When H.B. finally quells the roaring winds, everybody comes together in a celebration of tea and marshmallows. Written by van_whistler@hotmail.co.uk See less
