* PetTheDog: Despite all of the trouble Peppermint Patty causes in this movie with her obsessive voting, Patty never considers ''not'' searching for Snoopy when he goes missing. All the girls also all vote for saving the boys without a single negative vote, Lucy included.

* WackyWaterbed: Peppermint Patty gets to sleep on a waterbed as leader of the girls' group in a camp. Once she falls asleep, Snoopy enters the girls' tent to kiss the girls. When he jumps on Peppermint Patty's waterbed, the resulting waves send both Patty and Snoopy bouncing uncontrollably, making a great deal of noise. Marcie then grabs Peppermint Patty, only to bounce uncontrollably on the waterbed with Peppermint Patty. Snoopy then bounces out of the waterbed and returns to his tent.

%%* BlackComedy: As always, in ''Peanuts'' style.

%%* BootCampEpisode: The early camp scenes.

%%* CatsAreMean: Brutus is a prime example.

%%* TheChewToy: Short of finding the cabin, the whole ''Peanuts'' gang in this one, really.
%%* CollectiveGroan: Many times in the movie.

%%* LeafBoat: Woodstock constructs one.

%%* SchmuckBait: Sort of.

%%* SummerCampy

%%* InevitableWaterfall: The poster doesn't lie.

* TookALevelInJerkass: Peppermint Patty always had a rather big InnocentlyInsensitive streak, but in this movie crosses the line to full-blown {{Jerkass}}, especially in the cabin scenes.
* WackyWaterbed: Peppermint Patty gets to sleep on a waterbed as leader of the girls' group in a camp. Once she falls asleep, Snoopy enters the girls' tent to kiss the girls. When he jumps on Peppermint Patty's waterbed, the resulting waves send both Patty and Snoopy bouncing uncontrollably, making a great deal of noise. Marcie then grabs Peppermint Patty, only for Marcie to bounce uncontrollably on the waterbed with Peppermint Patty. Snoopy then bounces out of the waterbed and returns to his tent.

* BerserkButton: Snoopy is normally very laid back and avoids conflict, however, when Brutus threatens Woodstock he proceeds to [[CurbStompBattle deck the cat with a single punch]].

This one follows the ''Peanuts'' gang as they head off to Camp Remote in the Rocky Mountains, where they find that their experience is much like boot camp sans drill instructor: crack-of-dawn exercise followed by a chow line and then a series of competitive activities, culminating in a river-rafting race which pits them against some pretty treacherous obstacles, including a group of bullies who cheat every step of the way. Peppermint Patty is in charge of the girls' raft and has the drive to be leader (though every little decision, no matter how petty, is made with a vote), while Charlie Brown, who heads the boys' raft, slowly but surely comes to see that he must somehow take leadership if either team is going to win.

The ''Peanuts'' gang head off to Camp Remote in the Rocky Mountains, where they ultimately compete in a river rafting race downriver against a group of bullies who cheat every step of the way.

The kids' camp life is much like boot camp sans drill instructor, with crack-of-dawn exercise followed by a chow line and then activities culminating in a river rafting race with some pretty treacherous obstacles. Peppermint Patty is in charge of the girls' raft and has the drive to be leader, though every little decision is met with a vote, no matter how petty. Charlie Brown heads the boys' raft and slowly but surely realizes that he must take leadership if either team is going to win.

Known mainly for being the most action-filled ''Peanuts'' adventure, with some realistically scary kids' stuff like being separated in the wild and the many hazards that kids alone in the woods along a river would face. It was also one of the first videodiscs released in the early 1980s, though it took until 2014 for the film to make it onto DVD.
