A group of friends join up to create a club and use an old caboose as a clubhouse. There the six youngsters, Montgomery Moose, Bingo Beaver, Dotty Dog, Portia Porcupine, Woolma Lamb and Zipper Cat, meet regularly. They run into the ever-evil Catchum Crocodile and his sidekick Leland Lizard, who try to cheat at a scavenger hunt the group is taking part in. This special also introduces Mr. Hoofnagle, the local ice cream parlor owner, and Officer Growler. Originally the pilot for the series of the same name, this was aired a few months before the series premiered.
