Movie Of The Week
/
A Swinging Summer (1965)

Unfortunatly, I couldn't find the trailer of the movie,
so here is some excerpts
Wild Dance!
A new twist on the Beach Party theme—here we leave the beach behind and move the plot to the Lake Arrowhead mountain resort for a swingin' summer! A trio of teenagers spends the summer running the resort's dance pavilion and books some fantastic rock and roll groups including the Righteous Brothers, Gary Lewis and the Playboys, the Rip Chords, Donnie Brooks, Jody Miller and even Raquel Welsh warbles her vocal chords on "Ready To Groove." Carol Connors (of Teddy Bears fame) wrote the title song. Bruce Johnston and Terry Melcher can be heard singing "Hot Rod Roadster" on the audio track.
Bad guys, fights and a "chicken" race on water skis! Watch James Stacy run with his surf board into the lake.
Huh!? James Stacy, William Wellman, Jr., Quinn O'Hara, Martin West, Mary Mitchell, Robert Blair.
A Swingin' Summer!
