Camp Cool Kids

Young Spence (Connor Rosen) and his older brother, Zach (Logan Shroyer), have had a rough go when CAMP COOL KIDS begins. Following the death of their beloved dad, they've moved with their mom to their grandfather's house. Grandpa (the always reliable Michael Gross) is a wise, loving mentor to his grandsons, especially Spencer, who's timid and fearful and feels very much alone in his new Louisiana community. But summer camp is coming, and the grown-ups think two weeks at Camp Istrouma, a well-respected Christian overnight camp, will be just the place for the boys to meet new friends and have some fun. Spence isn't so sure. And at first, he's right. Dean, the king of the camp bullies, is delighted to have a new skittish boy to intimidate. Saving the first day for Spence is finding cabin mates -- The Armadillos -- who are inclusive and warm-hearted. Unfortunately, Zach, asked by his concerned mom to look out for his little brother, doesn't initially see Dean as a villain and enthusiastically joins the bully's clan. Despite assurances of a sensitive counselor, Spence's worries escalate when camp activities frighten him, and Dean and company come up with increasingly embarrassing pranks. As the central event of their two-week sojourn, the Camp Istrouma Games, gets closer, Spencer and his buddies must endure the bullies' antics, fend them off, and find a way to assert their own specialness.
