In the delightful state of Connecticut, affectionately known as CT, nestled between New York and Rhode Island, is where our adventure begins. This isn't your usual, run-of-the-mill state; oh no, it's teeming with lush green forests, shimmering lakes, and rolling hills. And cradled amidst this enchanting landscape is the most thrilling activity kids from all over flock to partake in - the Rope Course! Let's meet our imaginary guide, a walrus named Wally. Wally, sporting a slick pair of sunglasses and a jaunty red bandana, is not your average walrus. He's agile, adventurous, and surprisingly good at explaining the safety instructions for the Rope Course, albeit with a hilarious walrus accent that sounds like a mix of a hiccup and a chuckle! Now, the kids that participate in the Rope Course activity are a courageous lot, braver than a bear facing a swarm of bees. They are as varied as the many flavors of ice cream, from spunky Sammy who dreams of being a superhero to clever Clara, who can solve a Rubik's cube faster than Wally can waddle. All of them are united by their sheer love for adventure and a shared delight in the sound of Wally's uproarious laughter as he cheers them on. As they zip, swing, and scramble through the Rope Course, the kids of CT show a spirit as bright and bold as a summer's day. They're the true stars, turning fear into fun, challenges into chuckles, all under the watchful, twinkling eyes of Wally the walrus. So, if you ever find yourself in CT, you know what adventure awaits; just remember to look out for a bandana-wearing walrus and some seriously fearless kids!

For over 50 years, Frontier Camp has been dedicated to making disciples of Jesus by sharing God’s Word amidst the beauty of His creation. Since our founding in 1969, we’ve been licensed by the Texas Department of State Health Services and are proudly accredited by the American Camping Association. We’re also a member of the Christian Camping and Conference Association. Our mission is to use Christian camping and outdoor recreation as a means to support local churches in fulfilling the Great Commission—evangelizing people of all ages and discipling believers toward deeper maturity in Christ. Frontier Camp offers a dual ministry: during the summer, we host a 10-week youth camp, and throughout the rest of the year, we serve as a retreat facility for churches and like-minded religious organizations. Whether through summer camps or retreats, our goal remains the same: to expose people to Christ and encourage their spiritual growth through His Word and by reflecting His character in everything we do. While we provide top-notch recreation and exciting programming, the heart of our camp is the spiritual impact, rooted in the truth of God’s inerrant Word.
