Once upon a time, in the bustling state of New York, where the skyscrapers touched the sky, and hot dogs were as popular as rainbows after a drizzle, lived a group of art-loving kids. They were a fantastic squad who loved one thing above all else - Drawing and Sketching! They ruled the art world from their secret headquarters located in the heart of Central Park, a mystical treehouse hidden amongst the ancient trees known only as "The Sketch Pad". These kids weren't your ordinary doodlers, oh no! They were Sketch Warriors - protectors of imagination and creativity. Their mighty pencils worked faster than a New York minute, their erasers could correct any mistake, and their sketchbooks were like magical scrolls filled with marvelous creatures and breathtaking landscapes. Leading this extraordinary team was a cool imaginary character called Doodlebug, a hilarious and sprightly lil' bug with spectacles as big as his humor. He had a knack for turning any boring object into a spectacular masterpiece with his savvy sketches. Doodlebug’s drawings were so lively and vivid; it was rumored that they could leap off the page. "A boring apple? Let's turn that into a funny apple monster!" Doodlebug would often say, making everyone chuckle with his quirky imagination. Together, Doodlebug and the Sketch Warriors transformed the world of art with their continuous laughter, vibrant colors, and creativity that flowed like the mighty Niagara Falls. They proved that in the state of New York, the city that never sleeps, there's always time for a good sketch and a hearty laugh!

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.
