Shane excels on the football field. He's successfully completed three years at the Culver Military Academy and is set to became the commander of Company A, but now he will face his greatest challenge and experience his greatest adventure; an entire summer as a camp counselor for young boys.

Bjarne would rather be anywhere than the summer naval school. How can he learn to sail when he's afraid of the water? He arrives in Culver with thoughts of running away and after his first week wishes he had, but then he encounters a counselor who helps him in ways he never thought possible. When he meets a cute boy named Armando, he believes this may become the best summer of his life.
