Plot

High school students Nadeshiko Kagamihara, Rin Shima, Chiaki Ōgaki, Aoi Inuyama, and Ena Saitō, along with the Outdoor Activities Club adviser Minami Toba and Ena’s pet dog Chikuwa, go on camping at New Year’s Eve, during which they discuss camping again in the future as adults. Years later, Rin, a magazine editor in Nagoya, is visited by Chiaki, who has begun working at Yamanashi Prefecture’s tourism promotion organization recently. While in an izakaya, Chiaki mentions working on a redevelopment plan for an abandoned facility in the prefecture when Rin suddenly suggests building a campsite on its vast space. Chiaki then drags Rin to Fujikawa, where they visit the abandoned Fuji River Youth Nature Center. Nadeshiko arrives from Tokyo after receiving a message from Chiaki inviting her, Aoi, and Ena to meet up there. Following a crab hot pot at Nadeshiko’s house and Aoi’s arrival, Chiaki reveals her plan to build a campsite and assigns everyone’s role, including Ena who is not present due to her work.

They begin to cut overgrown grasses and branches on the campground. At the end of that day, they lay out the features to be built and discuss their campsite’s concept. Rin offers help in collecting ideas since she is going to visit the campsites that she visited during high school as part of her magazine. Afterward, Chiaki gets the green light from her supervisor to begin her campsite project. They celebrate the year-end holiday first before starting the project next year. Resuming the campsite building the following year, Chiaki reveals that the deadline to finish the project is about six months. The following week, Nadeshiko and Chiaki respectively bring an excavator and a mower to hasten their work. After renovating the facility, Rin, Nadeshiko, Chiaki, Aoi, and Ena go on camping there for a trial. Chikuwa later presents to the group a mysterious shrapnel that it has dug.

After their trial camping, Chiaki informs the group that an investigation is set to take place on the campsite due to the shrapnel being connected to buried earthenware found in the prefecture. Sometime later, she informs the group that the prefecture has decided to suspend their project to turn the facility into an archaeological site. They later decide to rework their campsite project by incorporating the archaeological site to it as an attraction to campers, resulting in approval from the prefecture. Sometime later, the campsite, now named Fujikawa Matsubokkuri Camp Base, has been opened. On its opening day, the visitors get lost on their way to the campsite due to missing direction signs, prompting Rin to guide them with her old Vino scooter. With the visitors enjoying the campsite, the group decides to hold another New Year’s Eve camping.
