In the charming land of Wisconsin, also known as the Cheese State, a troupe of very special children has taken the stage. These incredible kids participate in a magical activity called Theater/Drama and they are something extraordinary. Our story's setting might be known for its dairy delights, but it is also the playground for these young actors. The fields of corn grow tall but not as tall as the dreams of these young thespians. Now, let's introduce you to our imaginary character, Willy the Wisecracking Weasel, the director of this motley crew. Picture a weasel in a sparkly top hat and a stylish cape, always ready with a cheesy joke. "Why couldn’t the bike find its way home? Because it's two-tired," he'd squeak, causing a chorus of giggles to erupt. These kids, under Willy’s direction, aren't just any kids. They're cheese heads with a flair for the dramatic! They dive headfirst into the world of make-believe, turning the normal into the nonsensical. They can bring you to tears or make your belly ache from laughter. They perform under the bright Wisconsin stars, using tractors as their stage and haystacks for their seats. In this story, we'll meet Lily, who plays a princess better than Cinderella, and Sam, the master of funny faces. Then there's Jake, who can become a fearsome dragon with just a bit of green paint. With their whimsical portrayals and unfettered enthusiasm, these Wisconsin kids prove that the world is indeed a stage, and they are ready to perform. So, grab a block of cheese, sit back, and get ready to laugh and cry with the drama kings and queens of Wisconsin.

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.
