In this episode of the series based on Paul Hutchens's children's books, the Sugar Creek Gang eagerly awaits the start of the revival festivities. Beginning the special day by taking a celebratory swim together, the children realize that, thanks to a team of bullies led by Big Bob Till, the events may not run as smoothly as anticipated. With only a matter of hours before the start-time, the gang has a lot of digging to do to insure the revival goes off as planned.
