Deep in the heart of America lies a magical place called Wisconsin, or as the locals call it, the Cheesehead Wonderland. This dairy-rific state has more to offer than just mouthwatering cheese curds and fabulous fudge. Oh no, my friends, Wisconsin is also home to a set of extraordinary youngsters who are not only cheese connoisseurs but also Yoga enthusiasts! Meet Wally, the whimsical, wide-eyed badger, Wisconsin's state animal, and honorary guide to these yoga-toting tykes. Wally, with his shiny coat of fur and a peculiar cheese-shaped hat, is the coolest badger you'll ever meet – and the bendiest! There is nothing ordinary about Wally - he can do a Downward Dog while munching on cheddar, and meditate in Lotus Position atop a pile of Swiss. Every day, Wally gathers his troupe of tiny humans. They come from all across Wisconsin, from the bustling cityscape of Milwaukee to the tranquil beauty of Door County, carrying yoga mats rolled under their arms and a boundless enthusiasm in their hearts. They're the Wisconsin Wiggly Wigglers, a jolly band of children that are as flexible as rubber bands and as giggly as a rambunctious group of garden gnomes. Under the vast blue sky, the Wiggly Wigglers follow Wally through a series of fun poses. They become roaring lions, wise old owls, fluttering butterflies, and even pretzel-like twisted trees, all while laughing and learning. Sometimes, they hilariously topple over, only to get back up again with a grin on their faces. After all, in this Cheesehead Wonderland, there's no room for frowns, only fun, friendship, and a whole lot of yoga!

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.
