Summary

Babcock and Wilcox synopsis: Each year the B. & W. Club at Renfrew organizes an outing by the sea for members and their children. It is very much a children’s occasion and the day is filled with races and games and laughter, and plenty to eat. This year the outing was to Ayr and the film catches the spirit of anticipation and fun which are the essence of a children’s day by the sea.
