- TriviaThis was Kurt Russell first Disney movie.
- GoofsLem takes Vida to the movies on their first date to see a Ronald Colman and Carole Lombard picture, but his dialogue is interrupted (conveniently) before he can name the movie title. In front of the theater the marquee shows the title of the feature, "Altar Bound", along with the two stars names. The movie "Altar Bound" however, appears to be fictional.
- Alternate versionsThe 1976 theatrical reissue was shortened by 10 minutes, as was the original home video. The DVD is of the complete, original version.

Featured review
The year the movie takes place is 1930. This is a really good Scout movie (I'm a CubMaster), and I just saw this movie last night (6/17/04) on DVD. It takes the main characters through 20 years to 1950, showing how the town, the Troop, and the characters all change.
Something interesting about it: They can age the adult actors by 20 years, but not the kids, of course. That makes it kind of interesting today to see the actor they used to show Kurt Russell in his 30's. in the movie his character is about 13. They had to do that with all the child actors, but it's most noticeable with Kurt, since he starred in so many other later movies. This was also apparently his first movie.
