The first night was spent at Scout headquarters in Edmundston, 'N.B., and they arrived at the International Scout Camp in Pointe aux Trembles at the east end of Montreal Island on the following evening. After breakfast on Day 3, they climbed on the bus again and headed for the Expo site. The International Scout Pavilion was agreed on as a meeting place, and after a trip on the mini-rail to acquaint the boys with the site, each went his own way to explore Expo. Five dollars were given to each one to purchase at least one square meal and do what he liked with anything left over. The boys were challenged to see how many pavilions they could visit and have their passports stamped at as many as possible. Some of the more popular pavilions were the United States geodesic dome, and those of the Soviet Union, Great Britain, the Atlantic Provinces, Quebec, Israel, Italy and Burma; and favourite industrial pavilions were the Telephone Association of Canada, the Kaleidoscope Pavilion and Air Canada. Days 4 and 5 followed the same plan, with many of the boys finding their way to La Ronde, with the amusement arcades and rides. Some took advant- age of the hovercraft, helicopter and boat rides available around the area. Some even found their way to downtown Montreal and created a few anxious moments when they weren’t around to take the bus back to camp.

There were Scouts from all over Canada and the world at Expo 67 and at the camp where they stayed, and there were some exchanges of clothing, badges, etc., either voluntarily or otherwise, among the boys and girls from other areas. One North Shore person lost his hat through the window of a bus heading for Regina, and there were some other similar exchanges. On day 6 the Island contingent started their journey home, spending the night at Edmundston as before, and arriving at Scout Headquarters' 1n Charlottetown, very tired but very happy, and with a lot of wonderful memories of “Man and His World”, and the 70 nations represented there.

A lot of credit for such a large group being sent from the North Shore area should be given to the fund-raisers, whose activities during the preceding winter got enough money together to pay the travel costs. Each Scout was also required to save up a certain amount to go towards the trip.
