In the heart of the Lone Star State, where the cacti dance under the dazzling sun and the prairie dogs play peek-a-boo in the vast open fields, there exists a battalion of super imaginative kiddos. They are the Tall Tale Tellers of Texas, and boy, do they have stories that will rattle the stars! Now picture this - a tumbleweed bumbling through the desert, a hat spinning in the wind, and in the middle of it all, Tex, the talking cowboy boot. Yessiree, Tex is not your ordinary boot. He's got a silver spur for a nose, laces like a rattlesnake’s hiss, and a laugh that sounds like a coyote howl on a moonlit night. He’s got more stories than the Rio Grande has fish, and he loves to share them with the Tall Tale Tellers of Texas. These young'uns are the finest storytellers from Amarillo to Austin, from Dallas to Desoto. They gather every Saturday, just as the sun is setting, and the shadows of the big Texas sky start to dance on the ground. They sit around the campfire, their eyes twinkling brighter than the stars above, as they spin tales of courageous cowgirls, mysterious marshals, and even a jackrabbit who dared to outjump a kangaroo! Each child has a story to tell, as big and bold as Texas itself. They make the tumbleweeds stop to listen, the prairie dogs pop up in surprise, and even Tex, the talking cowboy boot, stomp in delight. So, if you ever visit Texas, make sure to listen to the Tall Tale Tellers, because their stories are as enchanting as a summer night in the vast, open Texas range.

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.
